This research typically focuses on using the to simulate how non-spherical or irregularly shaped particles—like agricultural grains, rocks, or powders—behave under different conditions. Key areas usually covered in such posts or papers include:
: How to move beyond simple spheres by using "clumped" spheres, super-ellipsoids, or polyhedral meshes to represent real-world grain shapes.
