Investigating the micro mechanics of cemented sand using DEM
The discrete element method has been used to investigate the micro mechanics of cemented sand. High pressure drained triaxial tests are modelled in 3D using a flexible membrane which allows the correct deformation to develop. Simulations with up to 12 MPa confining pressure are presented, which ar...
