The simulated results show that the motion of each particle is considerably modified by the rolling massage,and it depends on the relative rolling velocity, the rolling depth,and the distance between particle position and rolling position. Both particles＇translational average velocities increase almost linearly as the rolling velocity increases,and obey the same law. The increment of the average relative angular velocity for the leading particle is smaller than that of the trailing one.
