| Abstract: | To examine the accuracy and the chracteristics of the Distinct Element Method (DEM) which has non-deformable elements, the results simulated by the DEM were compared to the results of experiments and/or theories for three simple block models of a pillar, a mass and a toppling model. Consequently, it was elucidated that the DEM is a good numerical method which can be effectively applied to toppling failure of real fissured rock slopes. |
