Sommario/riassunto

Computational particle based methods provide unique and powerful numerical tools for modelling systems exhibiting discrete and/or



discontinuous behaviour, such as granular materials. Such systems are highly heterogeneous, typically composed of voids and particles with different sizes and shapes. Geological matter, soil and clay, soil-rock mixture in nature, geo-structure, concrete, etc. are some practical examples. Significant progress has been made in the development of particle based computational methods for granular materials in China over the last decade. This special issue contains
