Investigation of Mechanical Characterization of Transversely Isotropic Rock Mass Based on Rigid Block Discrete Element Method

open access: yesGeofluids, 2022
The laminated joints of transversely isotropic rock mass show strong discontinuity, inhomogeneity, anisotropy, and nonlinearity. This paper proposes a novel rigid block discrete element method (RB-DEM) to simulate the transversely isotropic rock mass ...

Calibration of the Discrete Element Method and Modeling of Shortening Experiments

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The discrete element method (DEM) is becoming widely accepted as an effective method for addressing tectonic problems in granular materials. It is capable of reproducing structures observed in the analog model (AM). However, the previous experiments also

Discrete element method to simulate continuous material by using the cohesive beam model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The mechanical behavior of materials is usually simulated by the continuous mechanics approach. However, simulation of non-continuous phenomena like multi fracturing is not well adapted to a continuous description.
