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

An Enhanced Discrete Element Modeling Method Considering Spatiotemporal Correlations for Investigating Deformations and Failures of Jointed Rock Slopes

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The discrete element method (DEM) is commonly employed to analyze the deformations and failures of jointed rock slopes. However, when the iterative calculation process of the DEM modeling should be terminated is still unclear. To solve the above problem,
