    A new time-delayed periodic boundary condition for discrete element modelling of railway track under moving wheel loads

    A new time-delayed periodic boundary condition (PBC) has been proposed for discrete element modelling (DEM) of periodic structures subject to moving loads such as railway track based on a box test which is nor...
