Micromechanical model for sintering and damage in viscoelastic porous ice and snow. Part I: Theory
B. Wendlassida Kabore, Bernhard Peters
Ice and snow have sometime been classified as a viscoelastic or viscoplastic mate- rial according to temperature, strain rate, pressure and time scale. Throughout experimental stud…
A parallel dual-grid multiscale approach to CFD-DEM couplings
Gabriele Pozzetti, Hrvoje Jasak, Xavier Besseron +2
In this work, a new parallel dual-grid multiscale approach for CFD-DEM couplings is investigated. Dual- grid multiscale CFD-DEM couplings have been recently developed and successfu…
A numerical study on the softening process of iron ore particles in the cohesive zone of an experimental blast furnace using a coupled CFD-DEM method
Mehdi Baniasadi, Maryam Baniasadi, Gabriele Pozzetti +1
Reduced iron-bearing materials start softening in the cohesive zone of a blast furnace due to the high temperature and the weight of the burden above. Softening process causes a re…
A co-located partitions strategy for parallel CFD-DEM couplings
Gabriele Pozzetti, Xavier Besseron, Alban Rousset +1
In this work, a new partition-collocation strategy for the parallel execution of CFD--DEM couplings is investigated. Having a good parallel performance is a key issue for an Euleri…
