Analysis approach for coupling between membrane structures and granular systems combining finite particle method (FPM) and discrete element method (DEM)

The coupling between membrane structures and granular systems (such as sand, snow, hail, etc.) may readily induce the bagging effect of membrane structures, which should be considered in structural design and analysis. In this study, an analysis method for coupling between membrane structures and gr...
