Photoelastic study of dense granular free-surface flow rheology and size segregation
… challenges facing experimental studies of granular rheology is the opacity of the constitutive particles, which prevents direct observations of their behaviour and interactions. This thesis describes a series of original experiments where instantaneous forces between individual particles …

Granular Collapses
… research presented in this thesis concerns the granular collapse problem, where a mass of a granular material is allowed to collapse under its own weight and spread out across a base surface. Whilst this collapse process has been studied in the past, there are a number of potentially important …

Avalanching on dunes and its effects: Size statistics, stratification, & seismic surveys
… which geologists are concerned arises from the granular processes investigated by physicists and engineers, and the water permeation that interests hydrologists and soil scientists determines the seismic velocities of concern to exploration geophysicists. In this dissertation, I describe four …
