Experimental proof of faster is slower in systems of frictional particles flowing through constrictions
(American Physical Society, 2015)
The “faster-is-slower” (FIS) effect was first predicted by computer simulations of the egress of pedestrians through a narrow exit [D. Helbing, I. J. Farkas, and T. Vicsek, Nature (London) 407, 487 (2000)]. FIS refers to ...
Clogging transition of many particle systems flowing through bottlenecks
(Scientific Reports, 2014)
When a large set of discrete bodies passes through a bottleneck, the flow may become intermittent due to the development of clogs that obstruct the constriction. Clogging is observed, for instance, in colloidal suspensions, ...
