Class
    Foam::PackingModels::Implicit

Description
    Implicit model for applying an inter-particle stress to the particles.

    The time evolution of particulate volume fraction is solved for implicitly
    on the eulerian mesh. The computed flux is then applied to the lagrangian
    field. The gravity force can optionally be applied to the particles as part
    of this model, using the keyword "applyGravity".
