摘 要:In this paper,dynamic similarity conditions are derived for discrete element simulations by non-dimensionalising the governing *** conditions must be satisfied so that the numerical model is a good representation of the physical *** a pure mechanical system,if three independent ratios of the corresponding quantities between the two models are set,then the ratios of other quantities must be chosen according to the similarity *** scalability of linear and non-linear contact laws is also *** tests of 3D uni-axial compression are carried out to verify the theoretical *** example is presented to show how to calibrate the model according to laboratory data and similarity ***,it is impossible to reduce computer time by scaling up or down certain parameters and continue to uphold the similarity *** results in this paper provide guidelines to assist discrete element modelers in setting up the model parameters in a physically meaningful way.
