讲座摘要
Particles are widespread in the physical-world, ranging from tiny powders, fine sands, to grains and rocks. The contact and interaction of a large number of particles can produce a dynamic system exhibiting very complicated overall behavior. The discrete element method has proved to provide a powerful tool to study granular materials in various fields, such as geological hazards, geotechnique, chemical processing, agriculture, and manufacturing. Based on an innovative matrix reformulation of the conventional discrete element method, Dr. Chun Liu has developed a high-performing discrete element software, MatDEM, which can effectively model millions of particles on a desktop computer. The particles can be carefully cemented to create various stones, with which one may build up a physical-world model in a computer. In this talk, the model is used to generate data for AI training, and it is applied to simulate battery manufacturing process, geotechnical processes on the moon, etc.
