    Fourier analysis identified flow-regime changes in dense granular rheology

    What the study found Fourier transform rheology was used to identify rheological markers in dense granular flows, including viscoelastic crossovers at relatively low shear rates and secondary loops at higher shear rates. The authors report that these patterns are consistent with a transition from quasistatic, friction-like flow to dense inertial, fluid-like flow. Why the authors…
