DOI: 10.1002/jsfa.11756
Abstract: Silo-bags are hermetic storage systems that inhibit fungal growth because of their atmosphere with low humidity, as well as low pH and O2 concentrations, and a high CO2 concentration. If a silo-bag with stored maize… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/jfm.2022.241
Abstract: Abstract Granular flow in a silo demonstrates multiple non-local rheological phenomena due to the finite size of grains. We solve the non-local granular fluidity continuum model in quasi-two-dimensional silo geometries and evaluate its ability to… read more here.
