Research Peer Review — Numerical Methods
Independent review of FEA/DEM models, mesh quality, and interpretation before journal submission.
Overview
An independent technical review focused on numerical soundness — not rewriting your paper.
We examine constitutive choices, boundary conditions, mesh sensitivity, and whether conclusions are supported by the model outputs. Findings are structured for authors and reviewers alike.
Who this is for
Journal submissions, grant milestones, and interdisciplinary rock mechanics studies where numerical methods are central to the claims.
Deliverables
- Written review memo with severity-ranked findings
- Annotated model screenshots and parameter tables
- Optional online debrief with authors and supervisors
Engagement process
- 1 Secure data transfer and scope confirmation
- 2 Blind review against stated objectives and methods
- 3 Findings workshop with authors
- 4 Optional re-review after revisions
How we work
Typical turnaround 2–3 weeks depending on model complexity. Confidentiality agreements supported.
