The deformable elements are the finite-discrete elements that are connected together with interaction elements. The interaction element hold discrete finite elements together with applying fictitious forces if they separate from each other. With this approach their connectivity is provided as in the case of Finite element method. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/286870976_Wave_Propagation_in_Galerkin_Based_Discrete_Element_Particles
