Additional information
This paper is the first to connect particle properties and microstructure to macroscopic behaviour of granular flows within a rigorous rheological model framework. A novel continuum model has been developed incorporating microstructure evolution, and system anisotropy. This work was sponsored by the US DoE (DE-FG26-07NT43070). An EPSRC iCASE project resulted with Johnson Matthey (Michele Marigo, email address available). It has been applied to: hopper flow (DoI:10.1016/j.powtec.2013.01.013); used to explain experimental observation (DoI:0.1103/PhysRevLett.109.128002); and compared with other model development (DoI:10.1007/s10035-013-0394-z).
