The evolution of geophysical shape descriptors under distance-driven flows [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2014
We investigate the evolution of axis ratios, roundness (isoperimetric ratio) and the number of static balance points under distance-driven flows. The latter have already been proposed by Aristotle as models of particle shape evolution and recent studies indicate that they may serve as models for frictional abrasion. We show exact conditions under which
