Cylindrical object contact detection for use in discrete element method simulations. Part I – Contact detection algorithms

This article is the first of two parts in which algorithms are presented concerning the contact detection between two cylinders, and a cylinder and a flat surface. This first part presents the equations for contact detection, contact location, contact overlap, and normal contact direction. The secon...
