Shape selection menu for grand scale discontinua systems
Abstract
It is now widely recognised that particle shape plays an important role in the behaviour of grand scale discontinua systems and may be partially responsible for some of the unexplained phenomena of particulate physics. It is therefore very important that a virtual discontinua modelling workbench includes a library comprising a large spectrum of shapes including real‐shaped particles of interest to scientists and engineers. In this context a question of selecting a particle from such a library arises. In this paper, a particular selection procedure based on shape selection chart is proposed.
