Abstract The whole process of concrete slump experiment was simulated with Particle Flow Code 3 Dimensions (PFC3D) software based on discrete element simulation. simulation results are in good agreement the macroscopic obtained from field experiments, indicating that use PFC for had feasibility have a observation speed and direction particles slump.

We present an explicit stabilised finite element method for solving Navier-Stokes-Brinkman equations. The proposed algorithm has several advantages. First, the lower equal-order space velocity and pressure is ideal presenting pixel images. Stabilised allows continuity of both tangential normal velocities at interface between regions different micro-permeability or free/porous domain. Second, fu...
