Abstract
We report on a new effect observed in horizontally shaken granular material in a rectangular box. Within a certain region of parameters of the oscillation the granular material swells recurrently with a characteristic frequency (see http://summa.physik.hu-berlin.de/GranMat/). This frequency is significantly smaller than the frequency of forcing. We claim that this new effect is caused by the the interplay between Reynolds dilatancy due to convective motion and mechanical stability of the diluted granular material in the box. Measurements of the dissipated energy per time supports this explanation.
