shear scenario?
Hi,
They are fundamentally different I'm afraid. Even direct and rotational are not
the same.
All three types of boundary conditions can be (and have been) simulated with
DEM.
There is no general and convincing argument to say they are all equivalent
(instead, I've always heard that they were different...).
I guess finding justifications (if any) will depend on your particular context.
Sorry for late reply
Bruno
