A metamodel for confined yield stress flows and parameters' estimation
<|reference_start|>A metamodel for confined yield stress flows and parameters' estimation: With the growing demand of mineral consumption, the management of the mining waste is crucial. Cemented paste backfill (CPB) is one of the techniques developed by the mining industry to fill the voids generated by the excavation of underground spaces. The CPB process is the subject of various studies aimed at optimizing its implementation in the field. In this article, we focus on the modelling of the backfill phase where it has been shown in [Vigneaux et al., Cem. Concr. Res. 164 (2023) 107038] that a viscoplastic lubrication model can be used to describe CPB experiments. The aim here is to propose an accelerated method for performing the parameters' estimation of the properties of the paste (typically its rheological properties), with an inverse problem procedure based on observed height profiles of the paste. The inversion procedure is based on a metamodel built from an initial partial differential equation model, thanks to a Polynomial Chaos Expansion coupled with a Principal Component Analysis.<|reference_end|>
