This paper presents a thorough guide to simulating jet grouting using the Moving Particle Semi-Implicit (MPS) method for numerical analysis and Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) for model development. It addresses the shortcomings of previous jet grouting simulation studies, which often lacked clear and comprehensive guidelines, by providing a detailed step-by-step approach. The key aspects of the simulation that define and shape the output of real-world jet grouting technology, such as jet grouting spray settings and material parameter configurations, are validated against benchmark experimental data. The previously challenging task of accurately determining material parameters for soil when modeled as a Bingham fluid bi-viscosity model, is simplified into a universal guideline that can be easily applied to any soil type with known unconfined compressive strength. Finally, the reliability of the jet grouting simulation is confirmed by comparing the simulation results with benchmark experimental data under similar conditions, demonstrating the robustness and accuracy of the proposed method.
