A combined finite-discrete element method for simulating pharmaceutical powder tableting

No === The pharmaceutical powder and tableting process is simulated using a combined finite-discrete element method and contact dynamics for irregular-shaped particles. The particle-scale formulation and two-stage contact detection algorithm which has been developed for the proposed method enhances...
