• Behavior of fresh and fouled railway ballast subjected to direct shear testing: discrete element simulation (2014, background): “This can be attributed to a contact force chain that forms in the shear band where the particles within the shear band are displaced and rotate more than those outside the shear band (Cui and O’Sullivan, 2006 and Zhang and Thornton, 2007).”
