Research interests

  • Suffusion erosion by coupled CFD-DEM
  • Fluid-solid coupling
  • Numerical simulation of non-spherical particle in DEM

Topic:Effect of particle shape on suffusion of gap-graded soil using coupled CFD-DEM

  • Contribution: Developed a new particle shape of quasi-spherical polyhedra to investigate the shape effect on suffusion and mechanical properties.
  • Significance: Applying the non-spherical particle into the study of internal erosion.
