Computational granular mechanics is a rapidly growing field that has gained significant importance in recent years. Granular materials, such as sand, gravel, and powders, are ubiquitous in nature and industry, and they exhibit complex behaviors that can be difficult to understand and predict using traditional continuum mechanics approaches.

Computational granular mechanics provides a powerful tool for studying the behavior of granular materials at the microscopic level. By using numerical simulations, engineers and researchers can investigate the interactions between individual particles and the macroscopic properties of the material as a whole.

This book provides a comprehensive to computational granular mechanics. It covers the fundamental principles of granular mechanics, as well as the most commonly used numerical methods for simulating granular materials. The book also includes a number of case studies that demonstrate the application of computational granular mechanics to real-world engineering problems.
