Connecting micro- and macroscopic variables in the design of a granular stirrer using simulations

Predicting the mixing or segregation of granular of dense materials is difficult due to their athermal nature and lack of general theories. The goal of this research is to improve the design (diameter of the cylinder) and operation (rotational frequency of the screw conveyor) of the stirrer to attai...
