Fleck; David Durban A one dimensional analytical model is developed for the steady state, axisymmetric flow of damp powder within a rotating impervious cone. The powder spins with the cone but migrates up the wall of the cone (along a generator) under...

The same result is shown to be valid in the case of nonclassical damping but only for tridiagonal sparse stiffness matrix...
