=== Revolving cylinder method === The material is placed within a cylinder with at least one transparent end. The cylinder is rotated at a fixed speed, and the observer watches the material move within it. The effect is similar to watching clothes tumble over one another in a slowly rotating clothes dryer. The granular material assumes a certain angle as it flows within the rotating cylinder. This method is recommended for obtaining the dynamic angle of repose, which may vary from the static angle of repose measured by other methods.
