Shouldn't it be harder to explode as it gets bigger?
Hi,
As the strength is increasing the forces will also be higher before the bonds break. Typically higher forces require smaller time-steps to be stable.
I'd recommend decreasing the EDEM time-step in this case. You could create a small test case with the same material properties and forces to check time-step stability.
