Sidewall friction in confined surface flows of granular materials

We report numerical simulations of surface granular flows confined between two sidewalls. These systems exhibit both very slow and very energetic flows. Zhu et al. [1] have shown that in energetic confined systems, the Froude number at sidewalls and the sidewall effective friction coefficient are li...
