<P><B>Description:</B>
</P>
<P>The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The DiFeliceDrag model is a model that calculates the particle based drag force following the correlation of Di Felice (see Zhou et al. (2010), JFM).
