An insight into the yielding and normal compression of sand with irregularly-shaped particles using DEM
The micro mechanics of one-dimensional and isotropic normal compression of granular soil have recently been revealed using the discrete element method. By modelling soil grains as spheres and implementing a new crushing model, the authors have previously investigated the influence of fracture mechan...
