Introduction Have you ever seen video footage of an avalanche or landslide rolling down a hill? Why is it that at one moment everything seems fine then suddenly the mountain begins to slump? This ...

The prediction of the angle of repose for raised mounds of dry cohesive granular material is a long-standing problem in the natural sciences and in industry. Using numerical (particle-based) ...

Fine powders and granular materials are extensively used in industrial applications. To manage and to enhance processing techniques, these materials have to be exactly characterized. The ...

To measure the coefficient of static friction, change the angle on a ramp until a small wooden box slides downslope. One can change the contact surface to metal, add moisture, and change the weight of ...
