Model development based on discrete particle simulations of partially- and fully-saturated granular media
Granular materials are ubiquitous in industrial and geophysical scenarios. At a high computational expense, the discrete element method (DEM) simulates granular materials with a high accuracy by tracking individual particles. At the other extreme, empirical formulas based on dimensional analysis and...
