What is Efficient DEM for Brittle Rock Modeling about?

1. The document proposes an alternative formulation for DEM simulations of blocky rock systems using a lattice model approach to increase calculation efficiency over traditional polyhedral block models like 3DEC. 2. The approach uses a lattice network to represent rock material and the smooth joint model to represent block boundaries, with block interaction determined by the mean of contacting joint planes. 3. This promises to be more efficient than 3DEC while maintaining accuracy related to lattice resol
