AGGREGATE EVOLUTION IN SHEAR FLOW: NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE ROLE OF COHESIVE AND HYDRODYNAMIC FORCES
DownloadFall 2021
Multiphase flows with a dispersed phase of micron-sized solid particles are common to many industrial applications, ranging from wastewater treatment to metal purification. These particles are in a size range where surface forces are significant, and thus are likely to form aggregates. When these...

Coupled finite difference and discrete element method for modelling the underground stopes backfilled with the cemented rockfill
DownloadSpring 2023
Backfill columns and the adjacent rock pillars at the underground backfilled stopes are not isolated but mutually supported. Stress transmission and energy alternation occur between them ceaselessly due to the ubiquitous mechanical interactions at the frictional-bonded interfaces between backfill...
