Hello everyone
I am pretty new to LIGGGHTS and DEM simulations. I am trying to model a wet granular system. I want to know if LIGGGHTS has the equation of interparticle force of the capillary bridge for simulating wet granular systems?
Regards

afaik indirectly
in the official public version only a simplified cohesion model is implemented (sjkr/sjkr2) but there is a fork in github by Anton Gladky which implements the viscel models by Willett, Herminghaus, Weigert and Rabinov:
see https://github.com/gladk/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/tree/v.3.1.0_Capillar
Have a look in https://github.com/gladk/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/blob/v.3.1.0_Capillar/src/norma... about some literatur references and how the model is used / implemented.
I did not used it yet, but want to learn how it works.
cheers,
Christian.
