Abstract
We present a numericalstudy of a surface instability occuring in a bidimensional vibrated granular layer. The driving mechanism for the formation of stationary waves is closely followed. Two regimes of wavelength selection are identified: a dispersive regime and a saturation regime. For the latter, a connection is established between the pattern formation and an intrinsic instability occuring spontaneously in dissipative gases.
