Two prototype systems involving surface flow are compared: heap formation by pouring at a point and rotating cylinders. Continuum models for analysis of these flows are reviewed, and experimental results for quasi-2d systems are presented. Experimental results in both systems are well described by continuum models.7 pages, 5 figuresSoft Condensed MatterSurface Granular flows: Two Related Examplestext
