Summary

The course deepens students' knowledge of numerical simulation methods of discrete elements (DEM). In the course of the study the students will get acquainted with the classification of particulate matter and with the determination of parameters for DEM based on the mechanical-physical properties of particulate matter. The whole process of numerical modeling including calibration and validation procedures is gradually described. They will learn to use the methods of CFD, FEM. The whole scientific basis of modeling is applied at the end of the course to process systems in the field of geological engineering.
