LES MILIEUX GRANULAIRES ENTRE FLUIDE ET SOLIDE BRUNO ANDREOTTI, YOËL FORTERRE ET OLIVIER POULIQUEN medicines, cereals, wheat, sugar, SOLIDE ET FLUIDE ENTRE GRANULAIRES MILIEUX LES Sable, riz, sucre, neige, ciment... Bien qu’omniprésents dans notre vie quotidienne, les milieux granulaires continuent de défier l’industriel, de fasciner le chercheur et d’intriguer l’amateur. Pourquoi le sable est-il tantôt assez solide pour former un tas ou soutenir le poids d’un immeuble, et coule-t-il tantôt comme un liquide, lors d’une avalanche ou dans un sablier ? Pourquoi est-il difficile de compacter ou de mélanger des grains ? Comment le vent sculpte-t-il les rides de sable sur la plage et les dunes LES MILIEUX dans le désert ? Longtemps l’apanage des ingénieurs et des géologues, l’étude des milieux granulaires constitue aujourd’hui un sujet de recherche actif à la frontière de nombreuses disciplines – physique, mécanique, sciences de l’’environnement, géophysique et sciences de l’ingénieur. Cet ouvrage s’attache à dresser l’état des connaissances sur les milieux granulaires et à présenter rice...! les avancées récentes du domaine. Issu de cours de Master et d’’école d’’ingénieur, il s’’adresse aux GRANULAIRES étudiants des trois cycles universitaires, aux chercheurs et aux ingénieurs, qui trouveront là une pré- sentation des propriétés fondamentales des milieux granulaires (interactions entre grains, comporte- ment solide, liquide et gazeux, couplage avec un fluide, applications au transport de sédiments et à ENTRE FLUIDE ET SOLIDE la formation de structures géologiques). La description des phénomènes mêle arguments qualitatifs et formels, permettant de pénétrer des domaines aussi variés que l’’élasticité, la plasticité, la physique statistique, la mécanique des fluides ou la géomorphologie. De nombreux encadrés permettent d’appro- fondir certains phénomènes et illustrent les propriétés singulières des milieux granulaires au travers de leurs manifestations les plus spectaculaires (chant des dunes, sables mouvants, avalanches de neige…)

During the flow, the upper-right edge of theÀ columnð Þ is preserved (due to locally low compressional stress); in the case of very large a, it can be advected downstream. Closer inspection of the state of the spreading layer reveals the existence of areas of higher viscosities (Fig. 5): A “dead” corner is located at the basis of the initial column, and spreads sideways while the flow decelerates and stops; small patches of higher viscosity also appear at the surface of the spreading layer. The preserved edge forms one of them. The inner deformations are made visible in Fig. 6 by mean of passive tracers; we observe maximum stretching in the vicin- ity of the bottom and in the inner part of the column. As expected, the typical evolution described above is sensitive to both the rheological parameters and the initial aspect ratio. Larger values of the plastic viscosity g induce smaller run-outs but larger flow durations due to the increase of the time scale related to viscous deformation. Through a different mechanism, larger values of the yield stress induce smaller run-outs and smaller slumping times, the material being quickly frozen in a stress state below the yielding value. Finally, a dependence on the initial aspect ratio a, rather than on H or R alone, is observed, as previously stressed in Sader and Davidson 3=2 0 0 3=2 1=2 (2005).

As a result, we expect to identify simple and basic features that could help in developing future model for dense granular flows. g Let us emphasise that this collective work is not a re- view.

Second, since the data presented here come from the research group GDR MiDi and collaborators, many important contributions are not included. We refer to them in the references.

A comparison between the dimensionless actual avalanche (solid) boundary in experiment V05 (vestolen) and the computed (dashed) edge is plotted at a sequence of time steps in projected curvilinear coordinates (x, y). The vertical dashed lines at x = 17.5 and x = 21.5 indicate the position of the transition zone, with the 40 inclined channel to the left and the horizontal run-out plane to the right. In the bottom right panel the thickness distribution of the experimental avalanche is illustrated using 0.1 unit contours. experiment is shown in figure 2. This evolution is typical of all three experiments described in this paper. The granular material is released from the cap on the inclined section of the chute and rapidly spreads out in the downhill direction, so that when the avalanche front reaches the run-out plane the tail has barely moved from its initial position. As the avalanche flows through the transition zone the lateral confinement ceases and the granular material spreads out laterally. This produces a very strong nose and tail structure, in which the nose is spreading and the tail is being channelized by the topography. A single-image photogrammetric method has been used to extract the position of the avalanche boundary from a series of these photographs. A comparison of the Shallow Water Full 2D

These simulations were repeated for a ranging from 0.25 to 60. In order to estimate the influence of numerical integration errors, the spatial resolution was also varied from 32/29 to 32/ 212.Figure7illustratestheevolutionofthenormalisedfinaldeposit extent as a function of aspect ratio a.Well-definedpowerlawdependenciesareobservedwithexponents of 1 and 2/3 respectively.

For example, while the prefactor of 3.5 for the power-law regime Gerris is close to that of Staron and Hinch (2005) (3.25), the prefactor for the linear regime is only 1.85 compared to 2.5 for Staron and Hinch. This may suggest that themobilityofthetipofcolumns is under-estimated by the continuum model which could be explained by the limitations dis- cussed previously. Note also the good convergence of the results with spatial resolution.
