The thickness of shear bands, which form along slip surfaces during certain modes of geotechnical failure, depends directly on the size of the soil particles. Classical continuum models, however, are invariant to length scale, so the strain localisat... Read More about Simulation of strain localisation with an elastoplastic micropolar material point method.
