How to transfer the force data from EDEM to ANSYS Mechanical ?

Kaushik S

I was trying to get the force or pressure data from EDEM but it only gives me the total force that acts on the geometry rather than giving the exact location of that force or pressure in the geometry. so, it will be helpful if you can provide me with insights on how to get the pressure distribution or force distribution data from EDEM

Hi,

I would recommend reviewing the EDEM-Ansys Workbench e-learning - https://learn.altair.com/enrol/index.php?id=172

And also the tutorial for exporting data to Hypermesh:

In the EDEM Analyst > File > Export there are options for different formats such as Hypermesh, Ansys Workbench and SimSolid.
