Performance comparisons of bonding box-based contact detection algorithms and a new improvement technique based on parallelization

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to find a convenient contact detection algorithm in order to apply in distinct element simulation. Design/methodology/approach - Taking the most computation effort, the performance of the contact detection algorithm highly affects the running time. The algorith...
