AIChE Journal, Volume 72, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Here, we introduce a calibration‐less bonded‐sphere model to describe three‐dimensional, linear elastic, highly deformable particles. Voronoi tessellation is used to partition a particle into multiple sub‐spheres, generating a virtual bond network that mimics the mechanical properties of the original particle.
