The disposal of mining tailings has increasingly focused on the use of dry stacks. These
structures offer more security since they use filtered and compacted material. Because of the …

This paper investigates the strength and critical state (CS) behaviours of granular materials
via DEM simulations of true triaxial drained tests under three different loading modes …

The mechanical properties of rockfill materials are not only influenced by microscopic factors
such as particle morphology and gradation, but also closely related to different loading …

We investigate the effects of morphological features on the angle of repose (Φ) of granular
materials using a three-dimensional discrete element method (3D-DEM). A commercially …

The present study investigates the critical state behaviour of granular assemblies composed
of clumped particles under four different drained axisymmetric triaxial stress paths, using the …

This paper proposes an approach to generate realistic particle shapes considering the
major plane of orientation of particles in discrete element modelling (DEM). The particle …

This paper investigates the strength and critical state (CS) behaviours of sand under
axisymmetric stress paths with different shearing modes using discrete element method …

Tectonically deformed coal is composed of loosely bonded and brittle particles. The effect of
particle crushing on tectonically deformed coal was studied through triaxial loading tests …

This paper investigates the strength and fabric anisotropy of granular materials under true
triaxial configurations using the discrete element method. A clump logic based on the multi …

Purpose The study aims to investigate the effects of pre-loading histories (pre-shearing and
pre-consolidation) on the liquefaction behaviour of saturated loose sand via discrete …
