Particles bed morphology under an oscillating stiff and flexible plates

We analyse the different morphologies induced by an oscillating plate above an erodible bed. We present some data describing how the shape and the stiffness of the plate affects the main features of the generated heap. We investigate several configurations with different geometries, frequencies and...
