We measure stability of two-dimensional granular mixtures in a rotating drum and relate grain configurations to stability. For our system, the smaller but smoother grains cluster near the center of the drum, while the larger, rougher grains remain near the outer edge. One consequence of the size segregation is that the smaller grains heavily influence the stability of the heap. We find that the maximum angle of stability is a non-linear function of composition, changing particularly rapidly when small grains are first added to a homogeneous pile of large grains. We conclude that the grain configuration within the central portion of the heap plays a prominent role in stability.

Recently the supercooled Wahnstrom binary Lennard-Jones mixture was partially crystallized into ${rm MgZn_2}$ phase crystals in lengthy Molecular Dynamics simulations. We present Molecular Dynamics simulations of a modified Kob-Andersen binary Lennar
d-Jones mixture that also crystallizes in lengthy simulations, here however by forming pure fcc crystals of the majority component. The two findings motivate this paper that gives a general thermodynamic and kinetic treatment of the stability of supercooled binary mixtures, emphasizing the importance of negative mixing enthalpy whenever present. The theory is used to estimate the crystallization time in a Kob-Andersen mixture from the crystallization time in a series of relared systems. At T=0.40 we estimate this time to be 5$times 10^{7}$ time units ($approx 1. ms$). A new binary Lennard-Jones mixture is proposed that is not prone to crystallization and faster to simulate than the two standard binary Lennard-Jones mixtures; this is obtained by removing the like-particle attractions by switching to Weeks-Chandler-Andersen type potentials, while maintaining the unlike-particle attraction.
We evaluate in this work the hydrodynamic transport coefficients of a granular binary mixture in $d$ dimensions. In order to eliminate the observed disagreement (for strong dissipation) between computer simulations and previously calculated theoretic
al transport coefficients for a monocomponent gas, we obtain explicit expressions of the seven Navier-Stokes transport coefficients with the use of a new Sonine approach in the Chapman-Enskog theory. Our new approach consists in replacing, where appropriate in the Chapman-Enskog procedure, the Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution weight function (used in the standard first Sonine approximation) by the homogeneous cooling state distribution for each species. The rationale for doing this lies in the fact that, as it is well known, the non-Maxwellian contributions to the distribution function of the granular mixture become more important in the range of strong dissipation we are interested in. The form of the transport coefficients is quite common in both standard and modified Sonine approximations, the distinction appearing in the explicit form of the different collision frequencies associated with the transport coefficients. Additionally, we numerically solve by means of the direct simulation Monte Carlo method the inelastic Boltzmann equation to get the diffusion and the shear viscosity coefficients for two and three dimensions. As in the case of a monocomponent gas, the modified Sonine approximation improves the estimates of the standard one, showing again the reliability of this method at strong values of dissipation.
Using simulations and a virtual-spring-based approach, we measure the segregation force, Fseg, over a range of size-bidisperse mixture concentrations, particle size ratios, and shear rates to develop a model for Fseg that extends its applicability fr
om the well-studied non-interacting intruders regime to finite-concentration mixtures where cooperative phenomena occur. The model predicts the concentration below which the single intruder assumption applies and provides an accurate description of the pressure partitioning between species.
Inspired by the theoretical prediction [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 3423 (2001)] and the disputed experimental results [Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 189601(2002), Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 014302 (2003)], we systematically investigate the pattern of binary mixtures cons
isting of same layer-thickness under vertical vibration. Various kinds of mixtures with different diameters and densities particles are used to observe the separation regime. It is found that these mixtures behave like five kinds of segregation patterns for different driving control parameters, i.e., Brazil nut (BN), reversed Brazil nut (RBN), Mixed states, light-BN (LBN), and light-RBN (LRBN), where the latter two regimes are neither purely segregated nor completely mixed states. Not only that, but LBN (LRBN) is observed to be the transition path from BN (RBN) to Mixed state. Moreover, BN phenomenon takes place in the area of low density ratio and found to be independent of layer structure, while RBN is sensitive to the layer structure and occurs at the large density ratio but lower diameter ratio. Our result may be helpful for the establishment of theory about the segregation and mixing of granular mixtures.
We present an X-ray tomography study of the segregation mechanisms of tracer particles in a three-dimensional cyclically sheared bi-disperse granular medium. Big tracers are dragged by convection to rise to the top surface and then remain trapped the
re due to the small downward convection cross-section, which leads to segregation. Additionally, we also find that the local structural up-down asymmetry due to arching effect around big tracers will induce the tracers to have a net upward displacement against its smaller neighbors, which is another mechanism for segregation.
