DEM study of principal stress rotation in granular material

It has been well recognised that principal stress rotation (PSR) can lead to non-coaxiality and can accelerate the liquefaction of granular materials such as soil, which poses a challenge for the safe design of geotechnical applications. Most of previous studies regarding PSR have focused on shearin...
