Silo versus hydrostatic pressure
![Page 3: Granular flow in silos - observations and comments Jørgen Nielsen Danish Building and Urban Research Jn@dbur.dk SAMSI Workshop on Fluctuations and continuum.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/55151cc4550346a80c8b609c/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Focus on understanding phenomena
• Observations from silo tests• Comments related to
• Physical and mathematical modelling – Continuum / discrete particles
• Phenomena observed in silos• Stochastic approach
![Page 4: Granular flow in silos - observations and comments Jørgen Nielsen Danish Building and Urban Research Jn@dbur.dk SAMSI Workshop on Fluctuations and continuum.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062318/55151cc4550346a80c8b609c/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Physical modelling versus mathematical modelling
• Mathematical modelling is needed to generalise our understanding of physical phenomena and to predict behaviour under specified circumstances
• Physical modelling is wanted for controlled experiments in order to systematically observe and explore phenomena as a basis for mathematical modelling - and to verify such models

Silo scales

A good scientific physical model is more than just a small scale structure
The creation of a model law calls for some considerations:• Which phenomena to cover?• Discrete particles or continuum approach?• Which mathematical model to be based on? – Must be precisely
formulated, but you may not be able to solve the equations
Leads to the model law: Model Requirements and a Scaling Law

A ”friendly” silo problem
- may be characterised by:• A non-cohesive powder• Aerated filling• Low wall friction• Mass flow

A ”bad” silo problem
- may be characterised by:• Coarse-grained sticky particles• Eccentric filling• High wall friction• Pipe flow expanding upwards until the full cross section
has become involved

Items for a stochastic/statistic treatment
• Redistribution of pressure due to imperfections of wall geometry
• The value of material parameters for the (future) stored material
• The wall friction coefficient• The formation of unsymmetrical flow patterns in
symmetrical silos – and their load implications• Wall pressure fluctuations - load redistributions • The formation of rupture planes in dense materials
