This paper presents a numerical investigation of regime transition of flow of ellipsoidal particles and a comparison with that of spherical particle assembly. Particle assemblies constituting spherical and ellipsoidal particle of 2.5:1 aspect ratio are examined at separate instances in similar flow conditions in a shear cell model that is numerically developed based on the discrete element meth...

In order to establish a Discrete Element Method (DEM) model of soil particles, the in laboratory bin was used as research object. The texture determined be sandy loam by sieving, and shape particles analyzed an image particle analyzer geometric particles. Edinburgh Elasto-Plastic Adhesion (EEPA) chosen contact for simulation analysis, accuracy selection tests. parameters played crucial role res...
