Abstract
Discrete Element Models of rock beds were developed through experimental and numerical procedures, sensitivity and calibration tests. The potential of constructing self-supporting tunnels within rock beds to improve the air flow through the bed was investigated. It was observed that stable self-supporting tunnels could be formed using particles of different scale.
