Hi,
Is there a way to output the damping force component from EDEM? The current normal force output is the sum of the elastic and damping force and I don't find any other options to output the two contributions separately.
Best regards,
Hao
Hi Hao,
The topic is discussed here - https://support.altair.com/community?id=community_question&sys_id=7c2a4e31db4d91d0cfd5f6a4e2961990&view_source=searchResult
The only way would be to write a custom model with the damping on/off. A starting point for that would be the Contact Model API tutorial - https://community.altair.com/csm?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0037690

Hi Stephen,
Thanks for the information and help, I will take a look at the contact model API.
