Prediction of industrial, biophysical and extreme geophysical flows using particle methods
Paul W. Cleary, Raymond C.Z. Cohen, Simon M. Harrison, Matthew D. Sinnott, Mahesh Prakash, Stuart MeadThe purpose of this paper is to show how simulation of the flow of particulates and fluids using discrete element modelling (DEM) and smoothed particle dynamics (SPH) particle…
A fast and accurate method to solve the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations
Sergio Rodolfo Idelsohn, Norberto Marcelo Nigro, Juan Marcelo Gimenez, Riccardo Rossi, Julio Marcelo MartiThe purpose of this paper is to highlight the possibilities of a novel Lagrangian formulation in dealing with the solution of the incompressible Navier‐Stokes equations with very…
Formulation and procedure to treat a discrete particle model as a continuum
D. del Olmo, A. SerranoThe purpose of this paper is to continue the path opened by previous researches that focused on the stress and deformation behaviour of discrete particle models, along with…
A lattice‐particle approach to determine the RVE size for quasi‐brittle materials
Francisco Montero‐Chacón, Fernando MedinaThe purpose of this paper is to determine the representative volume element (RVE) size for quasi‐brittle materials using a discrete approach, namely a lattice‐particle model.
Discrete element approach in brittle fracture mechanics
Ba Danh Le, Georg Koval, Cyrille ChazallonThe purpose of this paper is to use the discrete element method (DEM) to model the fracture behaviour of brittle materials in 2D.
A 3D generalized rigid particle contact model for rock fracture
Nuno Monteiro Azevedo, José V. LemosThe rigid spherical particle models proposed in the literature for modeling fracture in rock have some difficulties in reproducing both the observed macroscopic hard rock triaxial…
Statistical mechanics as guidance for particle‐based computational methods
Ignacio G. Tejada, Rafael JimenezThe purpose of this paper is to show that there are some underlying principles of granular media that can be derived from statistical mechanics and that could be useful when…
