The phrase "applied to the particle" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or technical contexts when discussing how a certain concept, force, or method is relevant to or affects a particle.
Example: "The force of gravity is applied to the particle, causing it to accelerate towards the ground."
Alternatives: "pertaining to the particle" or "relevant to the particle".
The coupled SPH-DEM method is applied to the particle mixing process, and several particle mixing numerical studies are conducted and these simulations are analyzed in multiple aspects.
The improved algorithm was applied to the particle location problem with both two dimensional and three dimensional Eulerian grids.
A point load was applied to the particle surface through a sharp AFM tip, and the force displacement curves were recorded.
To reduce the computational cost, a new approximate analytical boundary condition is applied to the particle surface, which is approximately derived from the Stefan Maxwell equations.
The theory is applied to the particle bed model for fluidization (Foscolo and Gibilaro) where, under limiting conditions, it yields results compatible with linear stability analysis.
Averaging or coarse graining (CG) techniques, also referred to as the micro macro transition, are applied to the particle data from DEM simulations to extract bulk continuum fields such as density, velocity and stress, which are important for the design of a great majority of engineering applications.
In order to minimize or maximize the damage to the product material, one has to accurately calculate the loads being applied to the particles.
Literature values of measured particle electrostatic charges are compared to the maximum theoretical values predicted by Gauss' law applied to the particles and to the entire fluidized bed.
The second approach is an energy balance between the power of the drag force applied to the particles and the additional power required to drive the fluid due to particle presence.
The breakage method used is based on fracture of particles using geometric rules for progeny generation and estimates of the stress applied to the particles as they flow through the crusher.
This occurs because the contribution to the total potential (or complementary) energy of the particles (or pores) which intersect the edges of the VE becomes unphysically very large when uniform BC are directly applied to the particles.
