Modeling of heterogeneous materials and media is a problem of fundamental importance to
a wide class of phenomena and systems, ranging from condensed matter physics, soft …

Bio-particulate matter includes grains, cereal crops, and biomass that are considered
discrete materials with irregular size and shape. Although the flow of these particles can …

In this work, a numerical study of the gas–solid flow in an air-and-screen cleaning shoe is
carried out by use of the combined Discrete Element Method (DEM) and Computational …

This paper presents a novel computational-geometry-based approach to generating random
packing of complex-shaped 3D particles with quantitatively controlled sizes and shapes for …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to show how particle scale simulation of industrial
particle flows using DEM (discrete element method) offers the opportunity for better …

Grain kernels are finite and discrete materials. Although flowing grain can behave like a
continuum fluid at times, the discontinuous behavior exhibited by grain kernels cannot be …

Deeper understanding of screening performance of banana screens helps mineral
processing engineers to control and optimize them. In this article, screening performance of …

In this work, the combined effects of vibration parameters on the circularly screening
processes are analysed based on the Taguchi orthogonal experiment method. First …

Over the last 25 years a lot of work has been undertaken on constructing continuum models
for segregation of particles of different sizes. We focus on one model that is designed to …
