Hi guys,

Hope all are well.  If I want to simulate the deformation of geometry, like bending, i.e. the blade used to mix the strong particles at high speeds, which software should I use to couple with EDEM.  Thank you very much.

 

Best wishes

Sunny

    Hi Sunny,

    If the geometry deformations are not too large EDEM coupled with MotionSolve (Which is a Multi Body Dynamics Solver) is a good option to simulate.

    More examples of EDEM+ MotionSolve can be found in the Motion View/Motion Solve help.

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Sunny,

    To add to Prasad's answer - if MotionSolve is appropriate for linear elastic deformations up to 10% strain.
