EDEM Analyst is the post-processor used to analyze and visualize the results of your simulation.
Analyst Tree-Tools comprises the Ruler, Protractor, and Domain Grid.
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.
EDEM Creator is the pre-processor for creating an EDEM simulation model, including setting up equipment and defining the generation of bulk materials.
EDEM Simulator is a powerful solver used for fast and efficient simulations.
Analyst Tree-Display allows you to configure the display of your model in the Viewer. You can visualize Cylindrical Periodic Boundary conditions from the Geometries section.
Analyst Tree-Selections allows you to extract data from a particular area or element in the domain.
The Ruler measures the distance between two points. Use it to display the distance between elements in the Viewer.
The Protractor measures the angle between elements in the Viewer.
The Domain Grid is a visual aid used to indicate the scale of your model.
Analyst Tree-Clipping allows you to remove or clip areas of the model that are currently not of interest.
Analyst Tree-Field allows you to define the way fields are displayed.
EDEM Analyst allows you to review and examine your simulation.
You can export the data collected during your simulation for analysis using queries. Data can be exported from a single Time Step, a range of Time Steps, from all elements in your model, or from a selection or bin group.
Continuum Analysis allows you to view and analyze your simulation data as a Continuum instead of discrete particles.
The EDEM spray coating post-processing tools use a ray tracing approach that offer key advantages over the legacy Spray Coating model.
EDEM Analyst allows you to plot the data collected during your simulation using a number of charts.
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.
.h5
EDEM contains four solver engines.
This section provides additional information about how to estimate simulation time, supported EDEM File types, attribute definitions, and so on.
Definitions of terms used in EDEM.
This section cites the contributions made by various authors and sources that have been used as reference material for EDEM, and the specifics of how they have been applied can be found in the individual contact model sections.
