A poly-ellipsoid particle for non-spherical discrete element method

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to present a simple non-symmetric shape, the poly-ellipsoid, to describe particles in discrete element simulations that incur a computational cost similar to ellipsoidal particles.Design methodology approach - Particle shapes are derived from joining octants of...
