Insight on bulk shear strength parameters of clay using discrete element approach incorporating physics-based interparticle force model

This paper aims to provide insight on factors affecting the bulk shear strength parameters of clay, i.e., the cohesion and internal friction as well as the effects of memory of preconsolidation pressure. A unique Discrete Element Method (DEM) model is built on platy particles with customized particl...
