A numerical study on the effects of particle size distribution on run-out distance of granular flow

The discrete element method is a powerful numerical tool widely employed in granular flow simulations. To reduce computational costs, either monodisperse granular models or models with a limited number of particle sizes are used to estimate the risk of sediment-related disasters. This highlights the...
