Abstract
Numerical models based on the discrete element method (DEM) have been widely used to predict the mechanical behaviors of rocks in rock engineering applications. Nevertheless, calibration of the model parameters is done by running numerous simulations and this time-consuming simulation process precludes the numerical platforms to be used as a practical tool in such applications. This study aims to accelerate the calibration process of the micro-parameters of three-dimensional (3D) numerical models built based on DEM and facilitate the generation of an efficient database by using machine learning algorithms in the prediction of rock strength. Namely, these algorithms are linear regression (LR), decision tree (DT) regression, and random forest (RF) regression. The appropriate methodology for predicting the uniaxial compressive strengths (UCS) of certain rock types was investigated using a dataset consisting of micro-parameters of 87 DEM-based rock models, generated through an open-source code, Yade. The performance of such methods was evaluated by using metrics including R-squared score (R2), mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE), and then their statistical discrepancies were analyzed. The most accurate prediction of UCS was obtained in the LR method and the lowest percentage of performance was derived from the RF algorithms. LR method provides the results efficiently during calibration of the micro-parameters of a DEM-based rock model.
