A method of predicting behavior of a drilling assembly includes generating, by a processor, a mathematical representation of a geometry of drill bit that includes a plurality of earth contacting portions, the plurality of earth contacting portions including a plurality of cutters and one or more additional components; estimating, with a separate model for each earth contacting portion, contact with the earth formation during a drilling operation; and estimating one or more forces on the one or more earth contact portions during the drilling operation based on the estimated contact. |
