In this work, we use the Discrete Element Modelling (DEM) technique to study the impact of low velocity projectiles on wet, cohesive granular media with different packing fractions. Our motivation is to understand animal interaction on various sand terrains, and we aim to achieve this by observing different stages of interaction of solid projectiles with granular beds.
