JKR V2 for small particles only?

Kiran Purushothama Keshavan

Hey,

I would like to know if the JKR V2 is only suitable to model particles smaller than 100mm?
I was referring to document from this link

Which model is more suited for particles larger than 100mm? I am looking to model particles that are moderately to extremely wet.

Thanks,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,

You can use the JKR model for larger particles (than 100 microns, not mm) so long as you calibrate the variables.

 

However you could also consider the EEPA model to introduce the cohesion, you don't have to include the plasticity which EEPA also considers.
