Granular systems show a pronounced deviation from classical Boltzmann statistics of several aspects. In particular, we review some findings on anomalous velocity distributions.

Fluid velocity distribution among microchannels plays important role on the reaction performances. In this work, the velocity distribution among microchannels with two different manifold structures is compared by a three-dimensional CFD model under two situations respectively, no reaction and...

A plenty of recently established small Hungarian farms need new small scale agricultural equipment to expand the productivity and to fulfil the increasing quality control demand. As a response for this demand a modular solar dryer was developed and built which can help the quality saving with...

The one-particle distribution for the modulus of the velocity of a hard-disk fluid inside a small circular cavity is studied. Due to the geometry of the cavity, the total angular momentum L is conserved if the (elastic) particle–wall collisions are specular, leading to a new, special...

Proposing a good exit scenario can make great contributions to improving road conditions. The influence of two exit scenarios, which depend on the dynamic behavior of the last vehicle (that closest to the exit), on the route flux, vehicle number, and speed by using two feedback strategies with...

Many-particle simulations of vehicle interactions have been quite successful in the qualitative reproduction of observed traffic patterns. However, the assumed interactions could not be measured, as human interactions are hard to quantify compared to interactions in physical and chemical...

We present a short description of the properties of granular gas. In particular, we analyse clusterization, compartmentalization, non-Gaussian velocity distributions, and breaking of equipartition of energy.
