Can bond model in EDEM simulate Euler Beam?

Raheem Sterling_22160

Hi, everyone

The bond model has "critical normal stress" and "critical shear stress", but there is no parameter like "critical bending moment", I don't know if it can simulate Euler beam when the bending moment exceeds a critical value?

Thanks

Hi Raheem,

 

Bending moment is added in the normal and shear stress, as given below

 

 

To understand more about bonded model you can go through the below paper

Potyondy D.O. and Cundall P.A. (2004) A bonded-particle model for rock. International Journal of Rock Mechanics and Mining Sciences, 41(8): p. 1329-1364

 

Thanks,
