On Minkowski difference-based contact detection in discrete/discontinuous modelling of convex polygons/polyhedra Algorithms and implementation

PurposeContact detection for convex polygons/polyhedra has been a critical issue in discrete/discontinuous modelling, such as the discrete element method (DEM) and the discontinuous deformation analysis (DDA). The recently developed 3D contact theory for polyhedra in DDA depends on the so-called ent...
