A coupled fluid FEM-DEM technique for predicting blasting operations in tunnels

A coupled fluid FEM-DEM technique for predicting blasting operations in tunnels

We present recent developments in the coupling of the finite element method (FEM) and the discrete element method (DEM) for the analysis of rock blasting operations in tunnels. The coupled FEM-DEM technique has been proven to be an efficient procedure for predicting the multiple fractures of rock in...
