This paper discusses the development of a fully implicit discrete element method and its application to granular column collapse simulations. In the developed model, both the translational and angular velocities are solved implicitly and simultaneously. The model is verified by simulating a single particle bouncing on a flat surface and rolling on a slope; it is then validated through a granular column collapse simulation using many particles. The verification indicates that the restitution coefficient between the particle and the bottom surface estimated from the calculated results generally agrees with that of an input parameter, and the time-series variations of the translational and angular velocities of the particle on a slope are also in perfect agreement with the theoretical values. In the granular column collapse simulation, the performance of the proposed model with respect to the runout distance and deposition shape of the collapsed granular column is investigated in comparison to a previous experiment. The simulations are conducted for a total of ten cases by varying the initial aspect ratios of the granular column, and the calculated results are found to agree well with the experimental results.
