How to Make the particles push the geometry in Edem

Saeed Naamnh

Hi All, 

I would like to inquire about the best approach to configure particles in EDEM to exert force on a geometry, effectively simulating a piston-like movement (make the particles push the geometry like a piston). Could you please provide guidance on how to achieve this effect ?

Hi Saeed,

To achieve the effect you described you have to use a motion controller kinematic in your geometry.

You can learn how to use motion controllers and how they work by checking the EDEM documentation.

You can also check lesson 5.4 of the EDEM eLearning course

 

Best regards,
