Caption: Figure 8.

Schematic illustration of three steps in the refined compression model. (a) Before a collision between two aggregates. (b) Step 1: At the moment of their stick. New voids are created in the merged aggregate. (c) Step 2: Compression of the new voids. (d) Step 3: Further compression of the merged aggregate.
