I am using the 2024.1 version of EDEM. Why can't I export the XML file in my post-processing anymore? I need to modify some data. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thank you.
Hi, the XML was an unsupported feature which was removed in 2024.1.
The EDEM files can be edited with a HDF5 editor (such as Python) but it's best to use EDEMpy:
I want to use the volume packing feature to generate uniformly distributed, non-contacting particles. When I don’t set the contact radius for the particles, it's easy to generate uniformly distributed, non-contacting particles (with all particles moving at low speeds).
However, when I set the contact radius for the particles, the generated particles often end up in contact with each other (some particles have high velocities).
Therefore, I want to modify the data using an XML file. First, I will set the contact radius to 0, use volume packing to generate the particles, and then modify the contact radius through the XML file. 😔
Can someone help me?
thank you very much
Hi, could you provide some specific steps or details on how to actually edit? I'm still not clear on the exact editing process.
Hi,
We have a guide here which gives some input on editing:
