Geomaterials are widespread in nature as well as in engineering practice, for example in the form of a naturally given soil or a synthetic manufactured building material. The failure mechanisms of these materials are characterized by complex failure modes and show a highly anisotropic bias due to their inhomogeneous microstructure. Since localization phenomena like cracks or shear bands occur the material cannot be treated as continuous in the usual manner. The discontinuous nature of failure in geomaterials demands an adequate and reliable numerical simulation model like the discrete element method (DEM). The attraction of DEM simulations of continua is attributable to the fact that the appropriate complexity (localization, pattern formati...
