Virtual CT analysis of pore structure in DEM-generated granular media: Application to porous asphalt
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: • Voxel resolution controls pore structure quantification in granular media. • Global properties converge at coarse resolution, unlike pore-scale features. • Increased resolution improves pore detection but induces over-segmentation. • Optimal voxel size should balance particle scale, accuracy, and cost.
