Particulate Handling/Processing and Granular Systems (TWc)

#237 - Poly-Dispersed Granular Systems II: Mixing, Blending and Segregation (TWC03)
This session will focus on the mixing, blending and segregation of a particulate mix comprised of particles of different size, shape, density, and/or surface characteristics. Papers exploring the effect of moisture and/or external forces on mixing, blending and segregation are also encouraged
