This paper presents a model for the investigation of sandstone degradation and sand production mechanisms coupled with fluid flow analysis using the Discrete Element Method (DEM). The model was used to investigate the effects of in-situ stresses and flow rate on sand production. We developed a...

This paper presents a numerical scheme for a solid–fluid coupled discrete-element method (DEM) that takes into consideration solid deformation and pore pressure generation and dissipation. Analytical solutions of conventional soil mechanics examples obtained by oedometer testing are used to...
