Shoal in rivers, streams, and lakes. A shoal–sandbar may seasonally separate a smaller body of water from the sea, such as: The term "bar" can apply to landform features spanning a considerable range in size, from a length of a few metres in a small stream to marine depositions stretching for hundreds of kilometers along a coastline, often called barrier islands. They are typically composed of sand, although they could be of any granular matter that the moving water has access to and is capable of shifting around (for example, soil, silt, gravel, cobble, shingle, or even boulders). The grain size
Granular material loud acoustic emissions in a process known as silo honking. Granulation is the act or process in which primary powder particles are made to adhere to form larger, multiparticle entities called "granules." Several methods are available for modeling of granular materials. Most of these methods consist of the statistical methods by which various statistical properties, derived from either point data or an image, are extracted and used to generate stochastic models of the granular medium. A recent and comprehensive review of such methods is available in Tahmasebi and other (2017). Another alternative for building a pack of granular particles that
