Meanings of granular material in English

What is the gravity like on Mars compared to Earth anyway....how might loose, granular material behave?

Or, as the researchers put it, a "mass of granular material encased in an elastic membrane."

No pigment particles were observed within the epidermis, but rather there were coarse clumps of granular material in the dermis.

The surface of Mars, for example, is littered with a granular material called regolith, a rocky debris and dust made by meteoritic impacts.

The Uborsk were enormous blobs of jelly, perhaps four meters around, who lived in a sea of soft, granular material that twinkled in sunlight.

Ultrastructurally, the morphology of TDP-43 inclusions is heterogeneous but mainly composed of loose bundles of 10- to 20-nm-diameter straight filaments associated with electron-dense granular material.

But that's not the only reason NASA is interested in granular materials, Agui added.

But granular materials are also excellent shock absorbers; energy traveling between the grains is quickly dissipated.

A theory of stress fields in two-dimensional granular materials based on directed force chain networks is presented.

Aggregates are granular materials such as sand, gravel, or crushed stone that form the necessary ingredients in concrete.

This energy-dissipating quality is what sparked Sen's quest to use granular materials to protect structures against deadly impacts.

Granular materials are discrete macroscopic particles that range in size from tiny grains found in powders like flour to massive boulders.

Granular materials do not perform Brownian motion, yet diffusion can be observed in such systems when agitation causes inelastic collisions between particles.
