The concept of a 'Reynolds-Taylor state' and the mechanics of sands

A novel conceptual model of the mechanics of sands is developed within a thermomechanical framework. Central to this model is the realisation that volume changes in granular materials are induced by two mechanisms. One is purely kinematic, and is a result of individual grains having to move over eac...
