Abstract
The problem of DEM contact models choice is described in the article. An analysis of the input data calibration, including a choosing the contact model, is performed. The main theoretical positions of the most popular models are considered, their comparison is made on the basis of a specially designed stand. Description and justification of the designed stand are considered. The analysis of the obtained results is carried out. Recommendations on the choice of the DEM contact model are given. The results show that it is time-efficient to use non-linear contact model for future model calibration.
