Grany-3. The cellular automaton simulator. Screenshots for physicists!



The purpose of this page is to show the real behavior of our program. We exactly respected Dr. Dominique Deserable's theory (which he designed as a granular media Ph. D. physicist), and this theory is responsible for the behavior of the phases in our simulation program.



Let's show the flow of sand in a silo. Here is a simple silo, filled with sand (colored in layers to show the movement), and closed by a special border at the bottom, which lets air (shown in blue) coming in. Here are steps n. 0, n. 30, and n. 80 of the simulation.
