Abstract
⺠We present a new contact detection algorithm for 3D convex non-spherical particles. ⺠We illustrate the mathematics for contact detection among potential particles in 3D. ⺠The optimization problem was cast into a second-order cone programme. ⺠We tested a wide range of contact types involving angular corners and flat surfaces. ⺠We employed the proposed contact detection algorithm in engineering applications.
