I like to understand how particles shape our landscapes in natural and human infrastructure - a fanciful exchange between order and disorder at all scales.
This is awesome! If you find a way to do use it in *any* class, lmk. Seriously, though, this is inspiring so many questions... it looks so uniform in "local" density change. Is it? how does it compare to compaction of espresso-ground coffee beans? Other shapes? grain density?
I have run 3 experiments with baby next to me in the last 2-3 weeks and all the data I have collected is absolutely stunning. I may bring her to the lab til the end of the year! #babyluckinlab

Got it! My mind immediately went to... "is there something about the slope?" or ... much more physics-y. I like the contrast with the vegetation as well. Do you know why it slid right there? Something about very localized vegetation? or substrate?
Very cool! Lovely landslide! From one landslide enthusiast to another: What makes it a "perfect" landslide to you? I'm looking at it thinking grain size distribution? slope? grain size sorting? other?
This is awesome and fun! ... but do vegetables really have the same shapes, density, size distributions of real rocks. hahahah kidding! kidding! Looking forward to reading the paper soon. :-)
My first #flumefriday post, looking at how small rock bags can mitigate scour. We might be a few vegetable bags down at home but they seem to have done the job.

Our Viewpoint on reimagining undergraduate teaching in materials science and engineering is now online! @josephtychoy, @KieraPeltz, @sayers_zehra, @NicolaSpaldin & Mary Wells share their insights and perspective: https://t.co/FOnqkjfnjx An inspiring read!
Last paper!We developed new experimental method based on 3D "Digital Volume Correlation" to -experimentally- track the mechanisms in play during the compaction of highly soft grains packing deep in the jammed state.
