If you've ever wondered how Brazil nuts always seem to end up at the top of your mixed nuts, this is the video for you! In this FYFD video, Nicole explains the Brazil nut effect and granular convection. • ---------- • Follow FYFD on: • Tumblr: http://fyfluiddynamics.com • Twitter: / fyfluiddynamics • Thanks to my Patreon patrons and FYFD supporters who help make FYFD and FYFD video possible! • Patreon: / fyfd • FYFD Supporters: http://fyfluiddynamics.com/supporters • ------------ • Granular convection footage courtesy of Matthias Möbius and the Jaeger and Nagel Research Groups, University of Chicago. http://nagelgroup.uchicago.edu/ • • Special thanks to Sidney Nagel and Irmgard Bischofberger! • ------------ • Want to learn more about granular convection?
