Application of 3D Discrete Element Method in Geomechanics, with A Focus on Rock Scratch Testing
The study demonstrates the application of 3D Discrete Element Method in geomechanics by modelling three example problems. Solutions are suggested to overcome the method’s restrictions and new calibration and testing techniques developed to improve the modelling quality. Comprehensive sensitivities a...
