A Simulation Method for Layered Filling of Grain Piles Based on the Discrete Element Method

The Discrete Element Method (DEM) has been widely employed to investigate the behavior of particle systems at a macroscopic scale. However, effectively simulating the gradual filling of bulk cereal grains within silos using the DEM remains a formidable challenge due to time constraints. Thus, there...
