Granular materials are abundant in nature, and in most industries, either the initial
constituents or final products are in granular form during a production or processing stage …

The numerical effort of discrete element method (DEM) simulations results in a general
idealisation of DEM models that makes the calibration crucial to obtaining realistic …

With a major global emphasis on the management of waste, alternative resources and a shift

This study explores the time-dependent and micro-to-macro behaviours of cohesive wet
granules through discrete element simulation of a widely employed calibration procedure …

Slurry in wet grinding mills is critical for transporting fine progenies out of the system to
downstream floatation process. It is commonly modelled as Newtonian fluids when …

This work aims to evaluate the use of a superabsorbent polymer (SAP) to provide
improvements in the handling properties of iron ore tailings (IOT). The material studied came …
