When we take a stroll on the beach, we walk on the sand without any trouble. The sand appears solid and is difficult to compress. When we put the same sand grains in an hourglass, they behave very ...

Granular flow dynamics in rotating systems is a multifaceted field that blends fundamental physical principles with practical industrial applications. Rotating drums, mixers and similar apparatuses ...

There's rarely time to write about every cool science-y story that comes our way. So this year, we're once again running a special Twelve Days of Christmas series of posts, highlighting one science ...

Itai Einav receives funding from Australian Research Council. What looks like ordinary sand, rocks or snow flowing in one direction can actually hide swirling currents that move in multiple directions ...

The latest version of the multiphysics simulation software introduces GPU acceleration through NVIDIA's CUDA® direct sparse solver, the Granular Flow Module and time-explicit structural dynamic ...
