Hello everyone
I would like to learn how can EDEM using to model a food processing extruder and simulate how the material turns into a solid under high compression at the extruder nozzle. Anyone can help me ?
Thanks so much
Hi Sayed,
The EEPA physics model allows you to model plastic cohesive materials, we have a tablet press tutorial using EEPA here:

I'd also recommend the Contact Model e-learning material - https://learn.altair.com/enrol/index.php?id=148
If you need to model more advanced physics you could investigate use of the programming interface (API) to customise the physics, however first I'd recommend reviewing the inbuilt models.
Regards
Stephen
