Discrete-element modeling of strain localization in a dense and highly coordinated periodic granular assembly

open access: yesFracture and Structural Integrity, 2022
Strain localization is one of the key phenomena which has been extensively studied in geomaterials and for other kinds of materials including metals and polymers. This well-known phenomenon appears when structure/material is closed to failure.
