Hello, I have modelled a particle (rock). However, I am trying to check the bonds but it is not appearing. Have you ever experienced it before?

Hi Thierno,

 

Are you using the bonding V2 model?

 

There are two bond models in EDEM for post processing of the legacy 'bonding' model you can check the Bond element status in the Analyst.  For the newer "Bonding V2" model the 'bond' status can only be seen via the Contact element analysis.

You can find the specifics of the Bonding V2 model analysis details in the EDEM Help > Analyst > Display Bonds subsection or also highlighted in the Bond V2 tutorial - https://community.altair.com/community?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0037194
