This book addresses the fundamental theory, computational approaches, and experimental findings of the field of granular materials, which is important for applications as diverse as energy, agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and engineering. The contents are given thematic consistency through the use of interpretive frameworks. Both basic concepts and state-of-the-art research areas, such as shear flow, jamming, packing, granular gases, multiphase flows, and fluid/particle interactions, are covered. Chapters provide a broad-based description of the overall question and then discuss the strengths and limitations of various approaches.
Scott V. Franklin is a professor in the Department of Physics at Rochester Institute of Technology, where he runs a lab that focuses on experimental and computational investigations of granular and other complex materials. His recent research interests include rod-like and other materials that, due solely to particle shape, can maintain a solid-like rigidity. He earned a PhD from The University of Texas at Austin.
Mark D. Shattuck is a professor in the Benjamin Levich Institute and Department of Physics at The City College of New York, where he performs experimental and computational research in soft condensed matter and granular materials. He is an editor of the journal Granular Matter and a founding organizer of the annual regional meeting "Northeastern Granular Materials Workshop." He also served on the Publication Oversight Committee of the American Physical Society. He earned a PhD from Duke University.
