Microscopic study of granular material behaviours under general stress paths

The granular material behaviour is determined by the local contact behaviour between particles and the spatial arrangement of particles. Investigation of particle-scale mechanism provides fundamental insights into global granular material behaviour. A multi-scale investigation has been carried out t...
