Basketful of analysis challenges
(OP)
All,
Any ideas of how to determine the shape and CG of granular material (known angle of internal friction)as it is being slowly dumped out of a container? I have the initial shape, before dumping.
Is this fluid dynamics?

Another note which may help: I am only interested in what is left in the container, of course.

If you want to get gnat's eyelash accurate, check Denver School of mines. I do believe they were working on a code for granular materials such as sand, ice floes, etc. Supposedly worked pretty good. But I don't recall the name of the code. Sorry.

Eventually, I'd do some static FE runs in various positions as well.

They have software to analyse particulates
