+
+[Description:]
+
+The force model calculates the surface tension force acting on each DEM particle based on a pre-calculated
+surface tension force as V_particle * F^sigma. When used in conjunction with the "cfdemSolverMultiphase"
+solver, the surface tension force is calculated with the CSF (continuum surface force) model 
+(see Brackbill et al. (1992): "A continuum method for modeling surface tension", J. Comput. Phys.).
+
+[Restrictions:]
+
+Has to be used with a multiphase solver that calculates the surface tension force. Tested with the solver
+"cfdemSolverMultiphase".
