Tree codes and sort-and-sweep algorithms for neighborhood computation: A cache-conscious comparison
Dominik Krengel, Yuki Watanabe, Ko Kandori +2
Neighborhood algorithms may take a considerable percentage of computer time in discrete element methods (DEM). While the sort-and-sweep algorithm is ideal in some ways, as it only…

Implementing van der Waals forces for polytope particles in DEM simulations of clay
Dominik Krengel, Jian Chen, Zhipeng Yu +2
Clay minerals are non-spherical nano-scale particles that usually form flocculated, house-of-card like structures under the influence of inter-molecular forces. Numerical modeling…
