Influence of particle contact models on soil response of poorly graded sand during cavity expansion in discrete element simulation
The discrete element method (DEM) has been extensively adopted to investigate many complex geotechnical related problems due to its capability to incorporate the discontinuous nature of granular materials. In particular, when simulating large deformations or distortion of soil (e.g. cavity expansion...
