Project Discrete Element Model

Discrete Element Model.

Mini Projects

• Tengattini 2023
  

  Reproducing numerically experimental observations of the mechanical behavior of a cemented granular material.
  The github project
  

• Rock properties during debonding
  

  From a calibrated model, investigation of the impact of the debonding on the elastic properties of a cemented granular medium.
  The github project
  

• Oedometer test under acid injection for rock
  

  The rock is modeled as an assembly of grains and bonds. The acid injection is modeled as a debonding phenomenon.
