ABSTRACT
Despite extensive studies on either smooth granular-fluid flow or the solidlike deformation at the slow limit, the change between these two extremes remains largely unexplored. By systematically investigating the fluctuations of tightly packed grains under steady shearing, we identify a transition zone with prominent stick-slip avalanches. We establish a state diagram, and propose a new dimensionless shear rate based on the speed dependence of interparticle friction and particle size. With fluid-immersed particles confined in a fixed volume and forced to "flow" at viscous numbers J decades below reported values, we answer how a granular system can transition to the regime sustained by solid-to-solid friction that goes beyond existing paradigms based on suspension rheology.
