Dear Colleagues,
Granular materials are ubiquitous in natural and engineering systems, and the physics and mechanics of them are crucial for understanding some aspects of geophysical flows, natural hazards (such as landslides and pyroclastic flows), food processing, chemical engineering, and pharmaceutical engineering. Granular materials can behave like a solid, a liquid, or a gas in different circumstances, which increases the difficulty in capturing their macroscopic behavior. Above all, granular materials are athermal, dissipative, and non-equilibrium. The thermal, mechanical behavior of granular assemblies and the phase transition when the system is subjected to different loading conditions, such as vibration, shaking, or shearing, bring huge difficulties in describing the general behavior of such a system. Additionally, there is still a long way to go to link the behavior of relatively simple mono- or bi- dispersed granular systems with regular particle shapes to the behavior of real natural or engineering system, such as different geomaterials, concrete, powders, etc., and to provide a proper mathematical model for simulating the macroscopic behavior of complex granular systems. This special issue presents a platform where academic and industry researchers can present methodologies, techniques, applications, experiments, and theoretical derivations that aim to increase our understanding of complex granular systems and their emergent behaviors, such as granular rheology, self-organizing criticality, granular segregation and percolation theory, and help link the behavior of granular system to more complex geomaterials. The focus of this Special Issue is both on modelling and simulation techniques but also on their practical application on various scenarios, and as such papers are welcome on a variety of topics including modelling, simulation, analysis, experimentation, and specific properties as defined above. Papers submitted on new and emerging topics within the general discipline are also encouraged.
