Observed phenomena of damage, viscoelasticity, and viscoplasticity in polymer-bonded
particulate materials (PBPM), like polymer-bonded explosive (PBX), are accommodated in a …

The morphology of soil particles is crucial in determining its granular characteristics and
assembly responses. However, how to introduce accurate and various morphologies of …

Fluid–particle systems are highly sensitive to particle morphologies. While many attempts
have been made on shape descriptors and coupling schemes, how to simulate particle …

Explicit expressions for continuum-like measures of deformation gradient, strain and stress
