Computational modelling of structures using discrete and finite elements
The objective of this thesis is the establishment of an objective comparison between the Finite Element Method and the Discrete Element Method when modelling the mechanical behaviour of the continuum, both for quasi-static and dynamic response. These two very different approaches to the same problem...
