Rendering of simulated microstructure of the sample, showing the packed GRS particles. The cube is repeated 600x to approximate a semi-infinite medium. The average diameter of the particles is 67 µm, and the cube side length is 1.75 mm.
The particle size distribution for the sample, taken from a measured SPIPA-B distribution with an average diameter of 67 µm.
Rendering of the individual particles of the sample, showing the Gaussian Random Spheres (GRS) shape of the particles. The GRS parameters are σ = 0.1, ν = 3, degree_correlation_series=2-7, discretisation=10.
