Synopsis "granular matter"

powders have been studied extensively because they arise in a wide variety of fields, ranging from soil mechanics to manufacture of pharmaceuticals. only recently, however, with the deepening understanding of fractals, chaos, 1/f noise, and self-organization, has it been useful to study the mechanical properties of powders from a fundamental physical perspective. this book collects articles by some of the foremost researchers in the field, including chapters on: the role of entropy in the specification of a powder, by s.f. edwards (cambridge); discrete mechanics, by p.k. haff (duke); computer simulations of granular materials, by g.c. barker (norwich); pattern formation and complexity in granular flow, by r.p. behringer and g.w. baxter (duke); avalanches in real sand piles, by a. mehta (birmingham); micromechanical models of failure, by m.j. adams (unilever) and b.j. briscoe (imperial college); mixing and segregation in particle flows, by j. bridgwater (birmingham); and hard-sphere colloidal suspensions, by p. bartlett (bristol) and w. van megen (melbourne).
