A Flexible Particle Model for Rock Fracture: Validation and Assessment of the Influence of Deformability on the Macroscopic Response
Circular/spherical rigid particle models that were initially applied to rock fracture studies were not able to match the ratio of the compressive strength to tensile strength that occurs in rock. In addition, the predicted macroscopic friction angle was much lower than the known hard rock experiment...
