La physique des tas de sable

What is the difference between a pile of rocks and a heap of salt, between corn seeds and grains of quartz, between balls and marbles? For the physicist the answer is simple there is none or hardly any ... Gravel, grains, seeds, rocks, sand, marbles, balls and powder belong to the same big family: granular materials. The physical and mechanical properties of these materials are rather surprising: they are halfway in between fluids and solids. This book focuses on a very specific property of granular materials: the vault effect. This phenomenon is essential to the understanding of the physics of sa.
