Rheology of wet granular materials under continuous shear: experiments and simulations

The behaviour of wet granular media in shear flow is characterized by the dependence of apparent friction μ* and solid fraction Φs on the reduced pressure P* and the inertia number I. Reduced pressure, P* = σ22a2/F0, compares the applied normal stress σ22 on grains of diameter a to the tensile stren...
