Transp porous med doi 10.1007/s11242-009-9412-3 a new method for generating pore-network models of porous media... We have applied this method to reconstruct real sandstone and granular sand samples through utilizing information on their coordination number distributions....
A hierarchical model for cross-scale simulation of granular media... As a demonstrative example, the strain localization of granular sand in biaxial compression test is investigated by the multiscale approach to showcase the above features
Densification of land reclamation sands by deep vibratory compaction techniquesLoose granular sand deposits formed during the land reclamation process are vulnerable to liquefaction upon imparting seismic forces....
The effect of fine granular sand on pododermatitis in captive greater flamingos (phoenicopterus roseus)... Small groups of flamingos were separated from the main group in an indoor enclosure with artificial grass carpet and, in earlier years, concrete flooring, with additional fine granular sand in the water basin for the study year....
