DENSITY-WAVE FRONTS ON THE BRINK OF WET GRANULAR CONDENSATION

Density-wave fronts on the brink of wet granular condensation

Abstract Density-wave fronts in a vibrofluidized wet granular layer undergoing a gas-liquid-like transition are investigated experimentally.The threshold of the instability is governed Cover Sets by the amplitude of the vertical vibrations.Fronts, which are curved into a spiral shape, propagate coherently along the circular rim of the container wit
