Error in Table
The authors would like to make the following correction to the original publication [1].
There were errors in Table 1a. First, an incorrect version of the Model Overview schematic was included in the Large-Scale Model (Primary Analysis) column. Second, in the “Static test penetration” row, the penetration values were incorrectly stated as “20 mm (s/D = 0.02)” for the Large-Scale Model and “8 mm (s/D = 0.01)” for the Small-Scale Model; the correct values are “100 mm, 200 mm (s/D = 0.1, 0.2)” and “80 mm (s/D = 0.1)”, respectively.
Except for the corrected penetration values, the other numerical values and entries in Table 1a remain unchanged.
The corrected Table 1a appears below.
Table 1.
(a) Analysis conditions used in DEM simulations.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
