Shear-driven size segregation of granular materials: Modeling and experiment

PHYSICAL REVIEW E, 81(5).

By: L. May n, L. Golick n, K. Phillips n, M. Shearer n & K. Daniels n

TL;DR: The Gray-Thornton model of segregation is applied to a granular flow with an exponential shear profile, and the model successfully captures the presence of a fast mixing process and relatively slower resegregation process, but the model predicts a finite resegregation time, while in the experiment resegregation occurs only exponentially in time.
