MGM fact sheet: preliminary results
Potential applications of MGM results
- Soil mechanics, geotechnical engineering
- Earthquake engineering
- Mining (open pits, strip mines, tunnels, shafts)
- Granular flow technologies (grain silos, powder feed systems; handling
of coal, ash, pharmaceuticals, and fertilizers)
- Coastal and offshore engineering
- Geological and geophysical processes (wind and water erosion of soil,
slope development and decay, deposit of volcanic materials)
- Off-road vehicle engineering
- Planetary geology
- Microgravity handling of powders
