Remarkable simplicity in the prediction of nonspherical particle segregation

Size-disperse mixtures of noncohesive particles segregate, or demix, during flow. For spherical particles, mixture segregation can be predicted based on the relative particle diameters. However, most particle systems in industry and geophysics involve nonspherical particles. Accounting for the immen...
