I need to fill a complex cavity（that's a cylinder with a complex internal structure） with particles, but if I use the particle factory, that's so slow and I cannot be sure the particle fills well, I see a method in web that is called quick filled, how can I do it? or is there another way to do it?

    Hi Jay,

    Thank you for getting in touch with this query.

    You can use EDEMs volume packing feature to efficiently fill a closed volume with particles to a specified solid fraction and while enforcing the defined particle size distribution.

    Hi Jay,

    If you need further information, we have an EDEM eLearning lesson that explains about this capability and how can be used to quickly create complex material profiles.

    Check lesson 12: Course: Introduction to EDEM eLearning (altair.com)

    Regards,

    Cesar
