On the capillary stress tensor in wet granular materials (2009, methodology): “nt depends on the intergranular inter2 actions belonging to this volume. We propose here to extend this micro-mechanical approach to unsaturated granular materials as proposed by Li [7], Jiang et al. [8] or Lu and Likos [9]. Along these lines we present two micromechanical models which take into acc”
A novel three-dimensional contact model for granulates incorporating rolling and twisting resistances (2015, background): “The contact model can be further improved for problematic geomaterials, by adding capillary force to investigate unsaturated sands [6], and adding van der Waals force to investigate lunar soils [9], for example.”
