Abstract The use of asymmetrical disc tools for the mining of hard and very hard rocks is a promising direction for developing mechanical mining methods. A significant obstacle in developing mining methods with the use of asymmetric disc tools is the lack of adequate computational methods. A deep understanding of rock–tool interaction can develop industrial applications of asymmetric disc tools significantly. The fundamental problem in designing work systems with asymmetric disc tools is the lack of adequate analytical models to identify tool loads during the mining process. One reasonable approach is to use computer simulation. The purpose of the research was to develop a simulation model of rock cutting using an asymmetrical disc tool and then evaluate the developed model. In the article, the Discrete-Element Method (DEM) in LS-Dyna was adopted to simulate rock cutting with asymmetrical disc tools. Numerical tests were conducted by pushing the disc into a rock sample at a given distance from the sample edge until the material was detached entirely. Two types of rock samples were used in the simulation tests: concrete and sandstone. The independent variables in the study were the disc diameter and the cut spacing. To validate the simulation model, analogous laboratory tests were carried out. The article presents a comparison of the results of simulation and laboratory tests. The given comparison showed good accordance LS-Dyna model with the experimental studies. The proposed test results can be input data for developing simulation models on a larger scale. Thus, it will be possible to consider the complex kinematics of the dynamics of the rock-mining process with disc tools using the DEM simulation.
