Показать описание
Highlights some potential Discrete Element Modelling (DEM) applications in Civil Engineering. Underscores the advantages of DEM over Finite Element Modelling. Also explains why DEM modeling is computationally expensive.
#DEM
#Equipment geometry
These interactions are at the heart of the DEM implementation, and they’re captured through different user-specified material properties. #user defined materials

Multiple particle types with different properties (shape and size distribution, density, Young’s Modulus, Poisson’s ratio, adhesion, thermal conductivity, specific energy for breakage, etc.), can be easily specified to capture the unique complexities of the system under investigation. There are several models that can be used to capture material behavior. The most common model is the Hertz Mindlin Model.

Hi, Dr. Alphonce Owayo
Could you please inform us how to do validation in DEM software?
I am new to ROCKY DEM. For Ansys Fluent, we normally use several parameters, such as Residual Value, Conservation of Mass and Energy, Mesh Independence Test, and Iteration test.
How about DEM?
Could you please inform it to us
Thank you so much for your help and support
