SUMMARY:The particulars of particulates - Nathalie Vriend\, Department of 
 Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics\, The University of Cambridge

CONTACT:Stephen Walley
DESCRIPTION:A granular material forms a distinct and fascinating phase in 
 physics: sand acts as a fluid as grains flow through your fingers\, the fa
 llen grains form a solid heap on the floor or may suspend in the wind like
  a gas. The continuous interaction between the different phases in granula
 r flows creates a complicated material that cannot be characterized by sim
 ple fluid or solid mechanics.\n\nIn this talk\, I will present cutting-edg
 e experimental research done on granular flows in DAMTP. We will look at a
 valanches and granular size segregation\, at different scales\, with the h
 elp of table-top and laboratory experiments done in the GK Batchelor Labor
 atory.\n
