Abstract

Description

We report the behaviour of mixtures of fine bronze and glass spheres under sinusoidal vertical vibration. Depending upon the ratio of their diameters and the amplitude and frequency of the vibration, we observe the formation of sharp separation boundaries between glass-rich and bronze-rich phases, the absence of gross convection which would mix these phases, and a number of oscillatory and non-periodic behaviours. These phenomena are related to the differential air damping of the glass and bronze grains, disappearing completely in the absence of air.
