Abstract In this paper we study the flow of granular materials between two horisontal flat plates where the top plate is moving with a constant speed. The constitutive relation used for the stress is based on the continuum model proposed by Rajagopal and Massoudi (1990), where the material parameters are derived using the kinetic theory model proposed by Boyle and Massoudi (1990). The governing equations are non-dimensionalized and the resulting system of non-linear differential equations is solved numerically using finite difference technique.

A size-dependent flow threshold is measured in discrete-element method simulations of dense granular flow across several different flow configurations and may be quantitatively captured using a nonlocal continuum model for dense granular flow.

In this paper we discuss properties of dense granular °ows and elaborate on some properties of a model which generalises the classical plastic potential model using elements of the double shearing model. It is shown how the model is embedded into a Cosserat continuum model. The proposed model recti¯es the ill-posedness of both the non-associated °ow rule and the double shearing model and may be used for both granular materials and also for metals which possess a micro-structure which is capable of rotation.
