Discrete element method simulation of wear due to soil-tool interaction

This study considered using a relatively new method to study soil-tool wear which could drastically reduce the time and associated costs of traditional wear studies. The goal was to utilize discrete element method (DEM) simulations to recreate the results of a circular soil bin test in order to deve...
