Abstract:
Abstract In this study, we explored the stability and compactness of columns formed from highly irregular particles. These particles, known as Platonic polypods, are fashioned by extruding arms onto the faces of Platonic solids, for which we systematically varied the number and thickness of these arms. We investigated the emergence and vanishing of geometric cohesion (i.e., solid-like characteristics, in the absence of adhesive forces among particles). We first built columns by depositing particles within a cylindrical container, which was then removed to assess the structure’s stability. Expe

Abstract:
The discrete element method (DEM) has become the numerical method of choice for analysing and predicting the behaviour of granular materials in bulk handling systems. Wet-and-sticky materials (WSM) are especially problematic, resulting in build-up and blockages. Furthermore, due to the large number of particles in industrial-scale applications, it is essential to decrease the number of particles in the model by increasing their size (upscaling or coarse graining). In this study, the accuracy with which upscaled DEM particles can model the discharge of a cohesive material from a belt conveyor o

Abstract Many tetrapod lineages show extreme increases in body mass in their evolutionary history, associated with important osteological changes. The ankle joint, essential for foot movement, is assumed to be particularly affected in this regard. We investigated the morphological adaptations of the astragalus and the calcaneus in Rhinocerotidae, and analysed them in light of a comparative analysis with other Perissodactyla. We performed 3D geometric morphometrics and correlated shape with centroid size of the bone and body mass of the species. Our results show that mass has an influence on bo

Abstract:
Decision-making theories explain animal behaviour, including human behaviour, as a response to estimations about the environment. In the case of collective behaviour, they have given quantitative predictions of how animals follow the majority option. However, they have so far failed to explain that in some species and contexts social cohesion increases when conditions become more adverse (i.e. individuals choose the majority option with higher probability when the estimated quality of all available options decreases). We have found that this failure is due to modelling simplifications that aid

In hydropower tunnel systems, unlined pressurized tunnels in competent rock are commonly used for cost-effective construction. Incorporating pressurized sand traps at the downstream end of these tunnels can increase plant capacity and improve energy efficiency. The present work focuses on optimizing the performance of existing pressurized sand traps. Hydraulic scale models were developed and tested at the Hydraulic Laboratory of NTNU, Within the 960 MW Tonstad Hydropower Plant in southern Norway as a case study.

Abstract:
Fracture expansion in rock masses can be observed by monitoring the break of contacts between the bounding particles via the discrete element method. The latter’s realization in this study via the PFC2D program tracked the evolution process of the zonal disintegration in an exemplary roadway-surrounding rock affected by mining. Besides, the damage evolution pattern in a high-stress soft rock roadway was simulated by the FLAC2D program using a strain-softening plastic model, revealing the effects of rock mass strength, stress state, and anchor support on the zonal disintegration of the roadway.

Instability of slopes is usually governed by a combination of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The inherent variability of parameters make the problem probabilistic rather than a deterministic one.

Slopes are open land surfaces that form an angle and therefore their stability and safety factors need to be considered. This research aims to analyze the stability of sand slopes using the Bishop Simplified method in Hyrcan 2.0 software with the addition of calcite (CaCO3) as a reinforcement method. Sand slopes have low stability due to low cohesion and lack of interaction between particles, which is exacerbated by the influence of groundwater. The addition of CaCO3 in various concentrations (0%, 10%, and 20%) was applied to improve the shear strength parameters of the sand slope. The simulat

The purpose of the present paper is to provide further insights on the definition of the parameters of the log-law in open-channel flows with rough mobile granular beds. Emphasis is placed in the study of flows over cohesionless granular beds composed of monosized spherical particles in simple lattice arrangements. Potentially influencing factors such as grain size distribution, grain shape and density or cohesion are not addressed in this study. This allows for a preliminary discussion of the amount of complexity needed to obtain the log-law features observed in more realistic open-channel fl

Graphite is extensively used in the engineering field due to its unique properties, and the study of its cutting mechanism has become particularly important. However, the brittle fracture mechanism of graphite makes it rather easy for cracks with a unique pattern of initiation and growth to develop when processing.

The internal crystal structure of graphite was modelled by a Voronoi structure, and a cohesion unit was globally embedded into the solid unit to simulate crack initiation and g

As a result of the simplicity and accuracy of the direct shear test, most laboratories choose this test in preference to more complex tests.
