12. This stick-slip motion of the plate occurs at very slow velocities (typically (Formula presented) and is the mark of a velocity weakening of the granular layer for small velocity. A detailed study of this regime is, in principle, possible, but would require a very long experimental effort. Here we focus on the continuous motion and on the transient regime at larger velocities.
