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

这个为期三年的奖项支持美国-法国康奈尔大学和雷恩大学在力学和统计物理方面的合作研究。调查人员是詹姆斯·t·詹金斯（James T. Jenkins）、米歇尔·卢格（Michel Louge）、丹尼尔·比多（Daniel Bideau）和他在雷恩的研究小组。研究人员建议对颗粒材料进行研究。他们将专注于一个简单的问题，即确定在颠簸、摩擦的斜面表面或其附近运动的单个粒子的运动。该项目具有重要的工业应用，并利用了雷恩大学颗粒材料物理学和康奈尔大学力学专业知识的互补优势。＊＊＊

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. ***
