Extending the Discrete Element Method to Account for Dynamic Confinement and Strain-Rate Effects for Simulating Hard Impacts on Concrete Targets
Concrete plays a pivotal role as a foundational material in critical infrastructure, particularly
in nuclear plants. Given the imperative for robustness and safety in such contexts, the design …
