Journal Article
Momeni, A., Clarke, B., Sheng, Y., & Hassanpour, A. (2024). Simulation of the deformable lateral boundaries in biaxial test using DEM. Particuology, 88, 161-175. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.partic.2023.08.015

Applying the discrete element method (DEM) in soil mechanics can provide abundant information at the particle-scale and facilitates illustration of the macro-mechanical behaviour of soils based on the inter-particle mechanisms. The triaxial test is o... Read More about Simulation of the deformable lateral boundaries in biaxial test using DEM.

The Sensitivity of Micro—Macro Mechanical Behaviour of Sand to the Inter-Particle Properties (2023)
Journal Article
Momeni, A., Eshiet, K. I. I., & Sheng, Y. (2023). The Sensitivity of Micro—Macro Mechanical Behaviour of Sand to the Inter-Particle Properties. Geotechnics, 3(2), 416-445. https://doi.org/10.3390/geotechnics3020024

Sand is a particulate material but is treated as a continuum solid in some engineering analyses. This approach is proven to be acceptable when dealing with geotechnical structures, provided an adequate factor of safety is applied so that there is n...

A review on micromechanical modelling of progressive failure in unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites (2023)
Journal Article
Wan, L., Ismail, Y., Sheng, Y., Ye, J., & Yang, D. (2023). A review on micromechanical modelling of progressive failure in unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites. Composites Part C: Open Access, 10, Article 100348. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcomc.2023.100348

The recent decades have seen various attempts at the numerical modelling of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in the aerospace, auto and marine sectors due to their excellent mechanical properties. However, it is still challenging to accurate... Read More about A review on micromechanical modelling of progressive failure in unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites.
