The topic of this paper is numerical analysis of the platinum ore disintegration process. The disintegration (i.e. stress-strain relationship, reaction forces and fracture of the ore etc.) is solved via the FEM in combination with SBRA (Simulation-Based Reliability Assessment) Method (i.e. Monte Carlo simulations). The ore is disintegrated by deactivating the finite elements which satisfy the fracture condition. Material of the ore (i.e. yield stress, fracture limit, etc.), is given by bounded histograms(i.e. stochastic inputs). The results are compared with experiments. Application of the SBRA method in this area is a new and innovative trend.
