Hello, I would like to ask how to obtain the tangential sliding distance in the Archard wear model in EDEM2024, so that I can analyze the relationship between tangential sliding distance and wear under different working conditions. Thank you!
Were you looking for this as an output from the model? The current model gives us the wear only but not the sliding distance. The model calculates the wear from the sliding distance which is calculated per time-step based on the relative tangential velocity*time-step.

There is a bit more detail here:
