A one parameter damageable contact law for DEM, with application to frictional-cohesive granular materials

A novel type of damageable cohesive law is presented for paired particle interactions in a DEM granular arrangement. It is designed in the spirit of a mixed breakage criterion for solid cohesion interaction, which can be implemented in parallel to a granular-frictional contact law. The evolution of...
