Several applications of a model for dense granular flows
Cawthorn, Christopher John (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 2011-03-15)This dissertation describes efforts to evaluate a recently proposed continuum model for the dense flow of dry granular materials (Jop, Forterre & Pouliquen, 2006, Nature, 441, 167-192). The model, based upon a generalisation ...

Spreading of viscous fluids and granular materials on slopes
Takagi, Daisuke (University of CambridgeDepartment of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics, 2010-11-16)Materials can flow down a slope in a wide range of geophysical and industrial contexts, including lava flows on volcanoes and thin films on coated surfaces. The aim of my research is to provide quantitative insight into ...
