Particles are deposited onto a surface with discrete sites. They are subject to an inhibition by which they cannot pass close by a particle already fixed on the surface. This implies that the surface builds up with vertical gaps between the particles. In t ...
The objective of this review is to examine how the concept of plasticity is used in geophysical fluid dynamics. Rapid mass movements such as snow avalanches or debris flows involve slurries of solid particles (ice, boulder, clay, etc.) within an interstiti ...
We have carried out laboratory experiments to determine the internal structure of segregating dense granular avalanches and test the recent theoretical predictions of the existence of breaking size-segregation waves [Thornton & Gray, 2008]. Measurements we ...
Highly concentrated suspensions of silica particles present shear thickening properties, shifting from a low to a high viscosity state, instantly and reversibly at a critical shear rate. Their viscosity increases by up to 3 orders of magnitude, changing fr ...
We present measurements of submicron aerosols in Tijuana, Mexico during the Cal-Mex 2010 field campaign. A suite of aerosol instrumentations were deployed, including a hygroscopic-volatility tandem differential mobility analyzer (HV-TDMA), aerosol particle ...
The rheological behavior of two hyperbranched polymer/silica suspensions with different dispersion states, surface chemistries, and concentrations of the silica nanoparticles was investigated in terms of viscoelastic properties, activation energy for visco ...
Stratification patterns are formed when a bidisperse mixture of large rough grains and smaller more mobile particles is poured between parallel plates to form a heap. At low flow rates discrete avalanches flow down the free surface and are brought to rest ...
The objective of this paper is to provide evidence of the existence of breaking size-segregation waves in dry granular flows down inclined chutes. A flume was initially filled to a constant depth with a bimodal mixture of spherical particles that were reta ...

We consider the application of endpoint techniques to the problem of mass determination for new particles produced at a hadron collider, where these particles decay to an invisible particle of unknown mass and one or more visible particles of known mass. W ...
I consider the two-body decay of a particle at a hadron collider into a visible and an invisible particle, generalizing W -> ev, where the masses of the decaying particle and the invisible decay particle are, a priori, unknown. I prove that the transverse ...
