Linking bottleneck clogging with flow kinematics in granular materials: The role of silo width

We demonstrate experimentally that clogging in a silo correlates with some features of the particle velocities in the outlet proximities. This finding, that links the formation of clogs with a kinematic property of the system, is obtained by looking at the effect that the position of the lateral wal...
