The self-diffusivity tensor in homogeneously sheared dense granular flows is anisotropic. We show how its components depend on solid fraction, restitution coefficient, shear rate, and granular temperature.

AbstractGranular flows of angular rock fragments such as rock avalanches and dense pyroclastic flows are simulated numerically by means of the discrete element method. Since large-scale flows generate stresses that are larger than those generated by small-scale flows, the purpose of these simulations is to understand the effect that the stress level has on flow mobility. The results show that granular flows that slide en mass have a flow mobility that is not influenced by the stress level. On the contrary, the stress level governs flow mobility when granular flow dynamics is affected by clast agitation and collisions. This second case occurs on a relatively rougher subsurface where an increase of the stress level causes an increase of flow mobility. The results show also that as the stress level increases, the effect that an increase of flow volume has on flow mobility switches sign from causing a decrease of mobility at low stress level to causing an increase of mobility at high stress level. This latter volume effect corresponds to the famous Heim’s mobility increase with the increase of the volume of large rock avalanches detected so far only in the field and for this reason considered inexplicable without resorting to extraordinary mechanisms. Granular flow dynamics is described in terms of dimensionless scaling parameters in three different granular flow regimes. This paper illustrates for each regime the functional relationship of flow mobility with stress level, flow volume, grain size, channel width, and basal friction.
