U.S.-France Cooperative Research: The Mechanics and Statistical Physics of Particle Motion on an Inclined, BumpySurface

9512931 Jenkins 这个为期三年的奖项支持康奈尔大学和雷恩大学之间的美法力学和统计物理合作研究。 研究人员是 James T. Jenkins、Michel Louge 和 Daniel Bideau 以及他在雷恩的研究小组。 研究人员提议对颗粒材料进行研究。 他们将重点研究一个简单的问题，即确定在凹凸不平、摩擦的倾斜平面上或附近移动的单个粒子的运动。该项目具有重要的工业应用，并利用了雷恩颗粒材料物理学和康奈尔大学机械专业知识的互补专业知识。 ***

9512931 Jenkins This three-year award supports U.S.-France cooperative research in mechanics and statistical physics between Cornell University and the University of Rennes. The investigators are James T. Jenkins and Michel Louge and Daniel Bideau and his research group at Rennes. The investigators propose studies on granular materials. They will focus on a simple problem of determining the motion of a single particle moving on or near the surface of a bumpy, frictional, inclined plane. The project has important industrial applications and takes advantage of complementary expertise in physics of granular materials at Rennes and mechanics expertise at Cornell. ***
