Abstract

We investigate the use of reduced-order modelling to run discrete element simulations at higher speeds. Taking a data-driven approach, we run many offline simulations in advance and train a model to predict the velocity field from the mass distribution and system control signals. Rapid model inference of particle velocities replaces the intense process of computing contact forces and velocity updates. In coupled DEM and multibody system simulation, the predictor model can be trained to output the interfacial reaction forces as well. An adaptive model order reduction technique is investigated, decomposing the media in domains of solid, liquid, and gaseous state. The model reduction is applied to solid and liquid domains where the particle motion is strongly correlated with the mean flow, while resolved DEM is used for gaseous domains. Using a ridge regression predictor, the performance is tested on simulations of a pile discharge and bulldozing. The measured accuracy is about 90% and 65%, respectively, and the speed-up range between 10 and 60.
