Simulation of solid propellant microstructures by combining the collective rearrangement method with the discrete element method

The polydisperse particulate components in solid propellant are incompact and randomly packed, which determines the microstructural features of the propellants. A packing method, combining the discrete element method (DEM) and collective rearrangement method, was applied to model propellant microstr...
