In this paper we report our experimental study of dilute-dense transition in a 2-dimensional granular flow of particle size d0 and channel width D with confined exit of width d. It is found that a maximum inflow rate Qc exists, above which the outflow changes from dilute to dense and the outflow rate Q(t) drops abruptly from Qc to a dense flow rate Qd. The re-scaled critical rate qc(≡Qc/(D/d0)) is found to be a function of a scaling variable λ only, i.e. qc~F(λ), and [Formula: see text]. The form of this new variable λ suggests that the dilute-to-dense transition is a global property of the flow; unlike the jamming transition, which depends only on [Formula: see text]. It is also found that this transition occurs when the area fraction of particles near the exit reaches a critical value 0.65±0.03.

Experimental investigation on simple model media may shed light on fundamental properties related to the dynamics of dry sand. In our experiments, we use assemblies of monodisperse metallic beads confined in various bidimensional containers. We study the response of these models to a shearing effect in a rotated cylinder and to a vertical vibration. We establish the relevance, on the phenomenology, of microscopic parameters like solid friction and elastic restitution coefficient on collision. We also put emphasise on the influence of the container boundaries. By the mean of an image processing device, we access, in some cases, to the density and to the velocity fields, which allows us to provide a statistical description of a granular flow.
