Patterns and collective behavior in granular media: Theoretical concepts (2005, background): “The corresponding equations, similar to Boltzmann equations for rarefied gases, can be rigorously derived for the dilute gas of inelastically colliding particles with fixed restitution coefficient, although certain generalizations are known, (Goldstein and Shapiro, 1995; Jenkins and Zhang, 2002).”
Dense inclined flows of inelastic spheres: tests of an extension of kinetic theory (2010, background): “Here, rather that introduce additional balance laws for angular momentum and rotational fluctuation energy, we attempt to take into account the frictional interactions only through their influence on the energy of the fluctuations of the translation velocity [19,20].”
Hydrodynamic modeling of particle rotation for segregation in bubbling gas-fluidized beds (2006, methodology): “A simple model from kinetic theory for rapid flow of identical, slightly frictional, nearly elastic spheres (Jenkins and Zhang, 2002) was adapted to incorporate particle rotation into the multi-fluid model presented in the previous section.”
