Granular Dynamics

at Georgetown University

Welcome!

You've reached the granular dynamics webpage
of the Georgetown Physics Department. I'm afraid we're not doing a very good job of maintaining this page. Our most recent publications are listed here . Sometime we hope to put some cool movies and other things here. In the meantime, here are links to some older results


Forcing and Velocity Correlations in a Vibrated Granular Monolayer, Phys. Rev.Lett, 89, 084301-1-4 (2002).	Clustering, Order & Collapse in a Driven Granular Monolayer *PRL, 81, 4369 (1998).*	Velocity Distributions & Density Fluctuations in a Granular Gas *Phys. Rev E., Rapid Communications 60, R2468.*

Some longer (but slightly dated) descriptions of our work can be found below:

For a more complete write-up of our work, download the our contribution to the Proceedings of WEHeraeus-Workshop on Granular Gases.
A little more discussion of the role of the forcing by the oscillating plate can be found in our contribution to the Proceedings of the 5th Experimental Chaos Conference.

This research is or has been supported by the National Science Foundation, the Research Corporation, the Petroleum Research Fund, and the Sloan Foundation.

The Granular Dynamics program is part of the Dynamics Imaging Lab headed by

Prof. Jeff Urbach.
