An inclined chute facility and its associated diagnostics has been developed and utilized to study the flow of granular materials. A variety of flow regimes and flow phenomena were observed. Fully developed flows were observed over a bumpy base for a range of slopes. Under some conditions, these flows were dominated by friction and under other conditions, collisions played a dominant role. A variety of unsteady flows were also observed. These include decelerating flows, accelerating flows, and wavy (periodic) flows. The characteristics of the base strongly influenced the flow regime and flow dynamics
