This study investigates the interaction between dry debris flows and a rigid barrier through
discrete element modeling (DEM) of flume tests. The debris materials were modeled as an …

The smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method was recently extended to simulate
granular materials by the authors and demonstrated to be a powerful continuum numerical …

Many field observations show that the shape characteristic of particles constituting natural or
industrial loose deposits is often size-correlated, that is, either more regular or irregular for …

Abstract The International Society for Rock Mechanics (ISRM) has suggested a notched
semi-circular bend technique in split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) testing to determine …

This paper investigates the characteristics of dynamic rock fragmentation and its influence
on the postfailure fragment trajectory. A series of numerical simulations by discrete element …

In this paper, the method of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is proposed to simulate a
fluidized submarine landslide with shear thinning non-Newtonian fluids over a seabed …

The prediction of shear strength between soil-structure interactions is of great significance to
the stability of geotechnical engineering. In this study, 480 morphological data with seven …

This study investigates the mechanism of rockfall impact against a granular soil buffering
layer above a concrete/rock shed via numerical simulations by discrete element method …

Accurate simulation of granular flow dynamics is crucial for assessing geotechnical risks,
including landslides and debris flows. Traditional numerical methods are limited by their …
