The final paper about the granular silo flow performed by former graduate student Endo-kun was published in AIChE J. In this paper, the effect of obstacle shape placed in 2D granular hopper was analyzed on the basis of drag force exerting on the obstacle. Anki performed corresponding numerical simulation.
