Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
O'Sullivan, C., Barreto, D., & Zdravkovic, L. (2008, September). Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations

Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations ofelement tests cam provide significant insight into the micro-mechanics of soil response. It is well established that soil behaviour is strongly dependant on the initial density. Generation of particulate as... Read More about Specimen generation approaches for DEM simulations..

Evolution of soil fabric and its interpretation using different methods. (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barreto, D. (2008, June). Evolution of soil fabric and its interpretation using different methods. Paper presented at British Geotechnical Association (BGA) Young Geotechnical Engineers' Symposium

Different methods to study the evolution of fabric anisotropy are presented. DEM simulations on assemblies of spheres subjected to different stress paths using a three-dimensional periodic cell are used for the analysis of these methods. The links be...
