      We review the basics of the discrete modeling of granular media, with the intent of providing readers with some understanding of granular material behavior based on the first principles in mechanics and computational methods. Three particular aspects of computational granular mechanics are covered: (1) physical modeling of granular media; (2) numerical methods for computational granular mechanics, and (3) transitions from discrete to continuous media. We try to answer the following questions. What exactly is discrete modeling? What are the applications of discrete modeling? Has discrete modeling any advantages over continuum mechanics? What are the limitations of discrete modeling? What are the main computational tools in discrete modeling? For the entire collection see [Zbl 0896.00015].
