Verification of two-dimensional LBM-DEM coupling approach and its application in modeling episodic sand production in borehole

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) is implemented in the Particle Flow Code (PFC) as a pore-scale CFD module and coupled with the particulate discrete element assemblage in PFC using an immersed boundary scheme. The implementation of LBM and LBM-PFC coupling is validated with the analytical solution...
