To establish the objective function between the repose angle of wet concrete and these parameters and obtain the optimal parameter values, the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)-Back Propagation(BP)-Genetic Algorithm(GA) method (PSO-BP-GA) is adopted. First, 80% of the 17 sets of data obtained from the Box-Behnken test were used as the training samples for the BP neural network, with the remaining 20% serving as the test samples. Then, the PSO is used to optimize the weights and thresholds of the input data in the BP neural network. After obtaining the objective function, the GA was utilized to perform inverse function optimization, targeting repose angle of 32.07°. Finally, the static friction (X1) between wet concrete particles was determined to be 0.158, the rolling friction (X2) to be 0.187, and the surface energy (X3) to be 1.580. With these parameters, five simulations were conducted, yielding an average repose angle of 32.31°. Compared with the actual repose angle , the relative error was 0.748%.
