Dynamic Spar Elements and Discrete Element Methods in Two Dimensions for the Modeling of Soil-Inclusion Problems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Discrete element methods (DEMs) provide new numerical means to study the behavior of soil-inclusion systems. In some cases, however, the classic DEM fails to model specific aspects of the inclusions. That is why a model ...
Evaluating Force Distributions within Virtual Uncemented Mine Backfill Using Discrete Element Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the distribution of intergranular forces within uncemented mine backfills using the discrete element method (DEM) and compares it with the existing analytical method. The virtual backfilling is ...
