| Abstract | This grant supports research that looks to advance the knowledge of how fluid-coupled granular media behave. Because granular media are ubiquitous in natural systems (such as soils in riverbeds and landslides) and infrastructure (such as concrete and ballast), this research will promote both the progress of science and engineering, as well as advance national prosperity. When a load is applied to a granular medium, such load is transmitted via a network of forces among grains that are in contact |
