In order to accommodate the large variety of soils, it is crucial to choose a suitable model complexity and corresponding identifiable parameters to describe the respective soil characteristic. Within this contribution, we present the parametrization of a soil model based on the Discrete Element Method and discuss efficient and robust methods with the help of direct optimization approaches.enDEMParameter IdentificationOptimizationDDC::500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematikconference paper
