The five bonded-aggregate shapes used in this study, referred to as the “constituents.” Top row, from left to right: a two-particle dumbbell, a four-particle planar diamond, a four-particle tetrahedron, a four-particle rod, and an eight-particle cube. Bottom row, from left to right: examples of the different types of rubble piles: all spherical particles, rods, and mixed.
