Introducing a reduced particle stiffness in discrete element method (DEM) allows for bigger
time steps and therefore fewer total iterations in a simulation. Although this approach works …

In this study, the compression characteristics of bimodal cohesive particles were
investigated using a discrete element method (DEM) simulation. The compression and …

The transient response of a particle-to-sCO 2 moving bed heat exchanger (MBHE) is
investigated by a continuum model when perturbations are applied to the particle inlet …

Aeolian deposition is significant to the landscape formation on Earth and even other
planetary bodies. Particle size controls the transport distance of particles. However, the …

In the actual dust removal process, aerosol particles with distinct physical properties often
coexist. Most studies on fiber filtration focused on the particles of a single species, resulting …

In many industrial processes, an effective particle–filtration system is essential for removing
unwanted solids. The oil and gas industry has explored various technologies to control and …

Random packing of wet grains is numerically investigated using a multiscale discrete
element method. The cohesion between wet grains is evaluated by the Weber number, with …

In the process of coal combustion and gasification, the evaporation of inorganic substances
forms submicron particles, which are very cohesive and play an important role in the …

We experimentally study the transition from steady flow to unsteady flow in a quasi-two-
dimensional granular heap when small amounts of water are added to monodisperse glass …

Obtaining accurate porosity information of fluvial sediment deposits is helpful and desirable
for many tasks of river engineers. Besides direct measurements of single samples and …
