Discharge Trajectory Graph EDEM

Pablo Reina

Hello Everybody,

I want to know if in EDEM exists, any option available to graph the discharge trajectory of the bulk material simulated? I tried to find it in the Analyst section in the graph tab, but I could not.

Thank you for your responses

Hi Pablo,

In EDEM  you can use streamlines to visualise the trajectory :

Otherwise you could use selections to select a set of particles and export the X,Y,Z positions (over time if required or 1 time-step), its not something that is plotted by default but the data is there for the analysis.

Regards

Thank you Stephen for your response,

 

How do I select a set of particles and export its position over time.

 

Thank you for your time.

Hi Pablo,

You can use the Manual Selection function.  It's shown in the e-learning:

In the e-learning it's Lesson 17.6: Creating Selection Groups.
