Cooperative effects in vibrated granular systems

In this thesis we describe experimental studies carried out in three different granular systems. Firstly, we describe the results of experiments and computer simulations carried out to test the validity of a randomly-forced model to describe the behaviour of a vertically vibrated, granular monolaye...
