Instead of a 3D drum, we simulate 2D rotating thin box which is almost completely packed with granular mixtures. The phase inversion of radially segregated pattern which was found in a 3D experiment are qualitatively reproduced with this simulation, and a brief analysis is followed. Moreover in our simulation, a global convection appears after radial segregation pattern is formed, and this convection induces axially segregated pattern.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1999-11-04T14:40:56.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "granular mixtures", "size segregation", "simulate 2d rotating thin box", "brief analysis", "induces axially segregated pattern" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
