The behaviour of granular material is strongly dependent on the stress level, so that small scale tests simulating large granular systems are not reliable in many cases. The stress dependent behaviour, however, can be simulated by placing the small scale test in a centrifuge. Due to the artificial gravity the stresses gradient in the small model can be made similar as in the prototype, resulting in a realistic behaviour of the granular material. Almost all types of granular systems can be investigated by this testing technique.
