Effective Wall Friction in Wall-Bounded 3D Dense Granular Flows

Effective Wall Friction in Wall-Bounded 3D Dense Granular Flows

We report numerical simulations on granular shear flows confined between two flat but frictional sidewalls. Novel regimes differing by their strain localization features are observed. They originate from the competition between dissipation at the sidewalls and dissipation in the bulk of the flow. The effective friction at sidewalls is characterized …
