Discrete element modelling of cavity expansion in granular materials
A granular material is usually an irregular packing of particles and its constitutive relationship is very complex. Previous researches have shown that the discrete element method is an effective tool for fundamental research of the behaviour of granular materials. In this research, discrete element...
