Simulator of Granular Flow

Video Link

This video simulates the irregularity of granular flow through a "hopper". As the materials flow out, they form a canonical structure which also is formed because of the jamming properties of the material. I think this is a good illustration before Thursday's class, as Dr. Daniels experiments a lot with these kinds of materials (I think).
