Abstract:An NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) imaging technique was employed to visualize the convective motion in a horizontally vibrated granular bed. The size segregation phenomena are observed for a binary mixture of larger and smaller particles. Temporal progress of the size segregation was evaluated for three different combinations of binary mixture. The convective motion was clearly observed by MRI, that is, the smaller particles tended to fall down along the side wall, while the larger particles tended to rise t… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
