it is known that EDEM 2022 equipped with a new breakage model: taveras model, my question is that, can we use particles with irregular shape as the parent particle and fragments in particle replacement process to simulate the particle breakage, b

Hi Kaiping Jin,

For now it is only possible to use the Tavares UFRJ Breakage Model with single spheres. This is mostly because single spheres allow the most precise way of calculating energies used to evaluate breakage and also the most efficient replacement of the mother particles by a specific fragment size distribution.

I hope that helps.
