Using discrete element modelling (DEM) and breakage experiments to model the comminution action in a tumbling mill

Includes abstract. === Includes bibliographical references (leaves 147-153). === The Discrete Element Method (DEM) is a powerful modelling tool that characterises the system at the individual particle level. This makes it particularly well suited for simulating tumbling mills whose charge is princip...
