Question #202299 on Yade changed:

jduriez proposed the following answer:
Hello Henry,

Paying enough attention to these two articles will be necessary to catch
the details, but, shortly, the idea of the first article (whose I'm one
of the authors) is to simulate (only) one rock joint which is infilled,
with a granular material. Particles of the model represent this infill
material.

In the second article (Luc's work) the DEM is modified so that the
interactions between some particles correspond to a (relatively simple)
behaviour of a planar joint. The particles correspond then to the rock
mass, but with some planar joints inbetween.
