      The easiest way to get information on the amount of particles that impact a wall is through the pattern of erosion / accretion. This sub-model performs a pure post-processing based on the number of particles impacting against a wall. Particles are not altered during the computation and retain their mass and composition in the rebound. The steps are described in the attached file.
