...A. Gholaminejad; A. Mahboubi; A. Noorzad The present research focuses on the simulation of encased stone columns in a 2D state by utilising the coupled finite difference method (FDM) and discrete element method (DEM). The stone column material was modelled by DEM using irregularly shaped particles...
