Creator Tree-Physics allows you to add Physics interactions.
New features and enhancements available in EDEM.
This document contains information about the EDEM release, such as key features and enhancements, bug fixes, and known issues.
EDEM is a high-performance simulation software for bulk and granular materials.
The EDEM user interface comprises three icons for each simulation component - Creator, Simulator, and Analyst.
Creator Tree-Project allows you to define the title and description for the simulation.
Creator Tree-Bulk Material allows you to add bulk material and bulk material particle shapes to a model and define their interactions.
Creator Tree-Equipment Material allows you to add equipment material to a model and define interactions between materials.
Creator Tree-Geometries allows you to use Geometry sections to construct the environment in which your bulk material interacts.
Creator Tree-Environment allows you to define global settings for the simulation in the Environment section.
You can create a list (stack) of automatically arranged contact models, where the top element is applied first, followed by the next one below it, and so on.
EDEM Simulator is a powerful solver used for fast and efficient simulations.
EDEM Analyst is the post-processor used to analyze and visualize the results of your simulation.
A Contact Model describes how elements behave when they come into contact with each other.
EDEM Cal is a utility which works with EDEM and is designed to assist in performing calibration.
The EDEM CUDA GPU module uses the latest General Purpose Computing on Graphical Processing Units (GPU) technology.
The EDEM Programming Guide describes the EDEM API.
The Coupling Interface Programming Guide provides an overview of how to use the EDEM Coupling Interface to couple with a generic CFD code and/or Multi Body dynamics codes.
EDEMpy is a Python library for accessing EDEM data from .h5 files (the underlying EDEM file format). EDEMpy does not require prior knowledge of advanced programming.
