Review on Numerical Simulation of the Internal Soil Erosion Mechanisms Using the Discrete Element Method

Internal erosion can trigger severe engineering disasters, such as the failure of embankment dams and uneven settlement of buildings and sinkholes. This paper comprehensively reviewed the mechanisms of soil internal erosion studied by numerical simulation, which can facilitate uncovering the interna...
