In the previous report the linearized stability results for the flow of granular materials down an inclined plane, modeled by a constitutive theory based on the kinetic theory approach were presented. In this report, the authors derive the governing equations for the flow of granular materials down an inclined plane, modeled by the constitutive theory proposed by Boyle and Massoudi (1990). The governing equations obtained will be solved numerically to obtain the basic solutions.
