Effect of Friction Coupling on Discharge Velocity Profiles and Force Chain Distribution of Maize Particles in Silos

The evolution mechanism of discharge velocity profiles and force chain distribution of maize particles in silos was studied based on the interaction between internal and external rolling friction of particles. Through EDEM, the silo and maize grain models were established for unloading simulation, w...
