A simple discrete-element model for numerical studying the dynamic thermal response of granular materials

This paper aims to investigate the influence of periodicity temperature change on the properties of dry granular materials in macroscopic and microscopic. A series of cyclic thermal consolidation tests have been carried out based on the discrete element method (DEM) that incorporate particles’ volum...
