We investigate the distribution of stresses transmitted by a compressed powder onto the containing vessel base and side walls. We make high sensitivity and resolution …
In the present study, we perform a series of physical model experiments and numerical simulations to examine the effect of fabric orientation on angle of repose. The results show …
We present measurements of the vertical stress profile σ on the base of flat-bottomed cylindrical silos discharged through an orifice centered on its base. An overweight forces the …
