TL;DR: In this article, a contact model was developed to describe the force-displacement behavior of elastic-plastic granules, and the authors measured the energy absorption during compression (slow stressing velocity of 0.02 mm/s) and impact (the impact velocity of 4.5 m/s).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a model of a fluidized bed granulator by combining the gas and particle dynamics with a simple model of particle wetting based on material tests and incorporated the collision behavior of γ-Al 2 O 3 particles into the contact model.

TL;DR: In this article, the deformation and breakage behavior of granulates in single particle compression test were described by means of forcedisplacement curves, by application of Hertz-Huber contact theory and continuum mechanics.

TL;DR: In this paper, a single impact granule test has been used to study the breakage behavior of granules and it has been shown that the elastic and plastic breakage behaviors during the impact are strongly dependent on the microscopic and macroscopic structure of the granules.

TL;DR: In this article, the fluid, particle and collision dynamics inside a fluidized bed granulator are described in detail using coupled DEM-CFD simulations, and three different granulator configurations are compared in terms of their particle-particle interactions, using criteria such as the average particle velocity, angular velocity, average particleparticle and particle-wall collision velocity and the collision frequency.
