Characterisation of contact parameters of sand grains to be used for discrete element modelling [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2019
Discrete element method (DEM) is a numerical technique that models the material as a combination of discrete particles which interact with each other through the contacts springs.

Modeling the 2D behavior of dry-stone retaining walls by a fully discrete element method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The dry-stone retaining walls (DSRW) have been tipped as a promising solution for sustainable development. However, before recently, their behavior is relatively obscure.

DEM investigation of the influence of particulate properties and operating conditions on the mixing process in rotary drums: Part 1-Determination of the DEM parameters and calibration process [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
This paper's goal was to select methods and a calibration procedure which would lead to the determination of relevant parameters of a discrete element method (DEM) and virtual material creation.

Recent advances in the simulation of particle-laden flows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A substantial number of algorithms exists for the simulation of moving particles suspended in fluids. However, finding the best method to address a particular physical problem is often highly non-trivial and depends on the properties of the particles and

‘They Need to Hear You Say It’: Healthcare Professionals’ Perspectives on Barriers and Enablers to End‐of‐Life Discussions With Adolescents and Young Adults With Cancer

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT End‐of‐life conversations with adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer rarely occur without the guidance of healthcare professionals. As a part of the ‘Difficult Discussions’ study, focused on palliative care and advance care planning discussions with AYAs with cancer, we investigated the factors that healthcare professionals identify ...

Diffusion-Based Coarse Graining in Hybrid Continuum-Discrete Solvers: Theoretical Formulation and A Priori Tests [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Coarse graining is an important ingredient in many multi-scale continuum-discrete solvers such as CFD--DEM (computational fluid dynamics--discrete element method) solvers for dense particle-laden flows.

Energy dissipation prediction of particle dampers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This paper presents initial work on developing models for predicting particle dampers (PDs) behaviour using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). In the DEM approach, individual particles are typically represented as elements with mass and rotational ...
