Does anyone have an API for triaxial test DEM simulations?

It’s too difficult for me to figure out triaxial calibration in EDEM!

    Hi,


    Just to note we don't have this as an example on the EDEM side, I'll leave it with the community to comment if there is an example anybody can share.


    With the API you can apply forces to specific particle ID's or named particles, so you could write a model to apply a radial force to a set particle type (the outer particles).  The API usage is covered in the EDEM Tutorials
