摘要
A model for pm-sized grain-grain interaction is presented, which exhibits the essential features necessary to describe collision, agglomeration and fragmentation processes. The model has been efficiently implemented in the LAMMPS code. In addition to existing models, adhesive forces and - gliding, rolling, and torsional - friction processes are implemented. The code scales linearly with grain number up to similar to 10(6) on a single processor and inherits the excellent parallelization features of the LAMMPS code on multi-processor machines. We validate the code by determining the velocity of sound of granular agglomerates. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
