3-Dimensional modelling of granular material in silos andresulting loads at rest conditions
Common design practice vs. SPH method
The structural analysis of a cylindrical steel silo is carried out by firstly usingthe common practice approach based on the design values of the Europeanstandard EC1, and secondly by using the meshless numerical method SPH.The results predicted by both approach such as pressures on silo walls are
compared and discussed.

Objective and scope of the study
According to the most existing standards the silos wall loads are still based on the analytical slice
model of Janssen (1895). This simplified model can only be used to estimate the wall pressures atrest conditions and symmetric cross-section.
To overcome these limitations and to allow for pressure variations during filling and discharge, itis a common design practice to multiply the uniform static pressures due to Janssen by empiricaloverpressure factors derived from experimental data.
But these practical rules are often too conservatives and lead to an uneconomical and notnecessarily safe design of silos.
In order to improve the structural analysis of the silos an alternative approach must be usedinstead of the simplified design rules from standards. The interaction between the silo walls and
the bulk solid as well as the nonlinear behaviour of the granular material must be considered.
The main purpose of this study is to analyse the capabilities of the SPH method to simulate thebulk solids behaviour and to predict the silo loads.
Can the SPH method be a useful engineering tool to design silos ?

(The same finite element mesh of the silo structure is used in both approaches in order to simplifythe comparison between both method)
Material modelling with SPH method
- The bulk solid is explicitly modelled using SPHparticles
- Constitutive model attached to the particles :Drucker-Prager elastoplastic criteria is used
- Contact simulation : sliding interface (type 7)
Common practice approach
- Determination of silo wall pressures fromstored material according to standards (e.g.
EC1 Part 4).
-The silo is discretised via shell elements(25x25mm), and the actions is implementedby surface loads on elements. Thecommercial FE software Ansys is used.

Conclusions
As a first stage of evaluation of the SPH method, only the resulting loads from thestored material at rest were studied. Based on the numerical results the following
observations can be made :
Significant differences can be noted between the two approaches in the pattern of pressures andespecially in the magnitude. For instance, the analytical value of the horizontal pressure given byEC standard is of 7 kPa at the transition, while the mean value obtained from the SPH method
reaches approximately 12 kPa at the same location.
Globally, the values calculated using the SPH method are greater than expected. Indeed, thevalues of the EC standard are very conservative as experimental data and many numericalanalyses have highlighted in recent journal publications.
The differences observed can probably be explained by the choice of the parameters of theconstitutive law that has a great influence on the results, and in other hand by the deformability ofthe walls that modifies the pressure distribution.
These latest points must be part of further investigations. The logical progression of theseanalyses will be to used this method to simulate the complex behaviour of the bulk material during
filling and discharge processes.

Conclusions :
The numerical results show that the SPH approach are very close to the experimental test results,so the simulation with SPH method obtained represent correctly the physical problemof sloshing tank wagon.
The SPH method is simple to mesh complex volums …but difficulties for measuring contact pressure between fluid and structure (higher peak force).
