- This paper, the first in a series of three published in ChERD, reports developments in a comprehensive and novel analytical approach with rigorous mathematical foundation to the challenging problem of determining stresses in stored granular materials. It makes a significant contribution to the discussion on the continuum vs discrete methods in determining such stresses. The approach allows exploration of realistic industrially important situations of stress and granular flow not covered by traditional analytical methods. The work has been used by research groups in Australia (Liu et al. 2020, Chen, Roberts and Donohue 2017) and China (Wang, Yang and Li 2018).
