  Hello!
  I am trying to model rock with MAT_1!98 (Jointed Rock). But the keyword seems not to be working. I have created the rock as DEM with the Bonded Particle Model and using the Particle Blast Method. The rock is failing before the blasting. I checked the unit of the parameters. I am confused about whether it is possible to assign the keyword MAT 198 to a model constructed with the discrete spheroidal element. Can you please guide me on what I shall do in this regard?

  Hi Mohammad,
  
  Unfortunately this question is beyond the scope for ANSYS employees to answer on a public forum, so hopefully other users can chime in.
