Then the LSA, in effect, would be simulating a granular flow.
The state of particle jamming is achieved via simulating a granular flow.
The stuck-in-time failure can also occur when simulating a granular flow, without the particle compression or expansion.
DEM can be used to simulate a wide variety of granular flow and rock mechanics situations.
To date, development focus is on geoscientific applications including granular flow, rock breakage and earthquake nucleation.
The convection of granular flows is becoming a well-understood phenomenon.
Then the effective frictional shear stress for the solid phase is that of pure granular flow.
Strong shocks in rapid dense granular flows can be studied theoretically and analyzed to compare with experimental data.
Debris flows move as granular flows down steep mountain valleys and washes.
The most widely held view is that the streaks are the result of dust avalanches produced by dry granular flow on oversteepened slopes.
