Boundary Conditions for Granular Flows at Penetrable Vibrating Surfaces: Applications to Inclined Flows of Monosized Assemblies and to Sieving of Binary Mixtures

The purpose of this work is to study the effects of boundaries on granular flows down vibrating inclines, on segregation in granular mixtures induced by boundary vibrations, and on flows of granular mixtures through vibrating sieves. In each case, we employ techniques borrowed from the kinetic theor...
