[Description:]
The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle
interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. The {MeiLift} model calculates
the lift force for each particle based on Loth and Dorgan (2009). In case the
keyword "useSecondOrderTerms" is not specified, this lift force model uses the
expression of McLaughlin (1991, J. Fluid Mech. 224:261-274).
