Description
Ansys Rocky is an advanced discrete element method simulation solution designed to help engineers accurately model particle behavior in complex industrial processes. The software specializes in analyzing granular materials and particle interactions using highly realistic representations of particle shapes, sizes, and physical properties. With multi-GPU acceleration, Ansys Rocky can process large particle counts efficiently, allowing users to tackle computationally demanding simulations with faster turnaround times. The platform supports sophisticated physics models, including wear analysis, particle breakage, cohesion effects, fluid-particle interactions, and multiphysics simulations. Integration with Ansys Fluent and other engineering tools enables users to combine DEM, CFD, and structural analysis for deeper insight into system performance. Engineers can import 3D scans, simulate non-spherical particles, and model fibers and shell-based materials with high accuracy. The software is used in industries such as manufacturing, mining, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, energy, and consumer products where particle flow behavior plays a critical role. Automation and scripting capabilities help streamline workflows and reduce manual setup effort. By providing detailed insight into particle dynamics and equipment interactions, Ansys Rocky supports better engineering decisions and faster product innovation.
Description
MercuryDPM is an open-source software designed for conducting discrete particle simulations, enabling the analysis of particle or atom movement through the application of forces and torques from external influences, such as gravitational and magnetic fields, as well as from laws governing particle interactions. In the context of granular particles, these interactions predominantly consist of contact forces, which can include elastic, plastic, viscous, and frictional effects, while molecular simulations may utilize interaction potentials like Lennard-Jones. This software is developed in a robust, object-oriented C++ framework, emphasizing clarity, flexibility, and extensibility to accommodate the needs of researchers and engineers tasked with developing new simulation models. Although primarily focused on granular material applications, MercuryDPM is designed to be versatile enough to handle various particle-based systems and accommodate long-range interaction scenarios. Users are supported by comprehensive documentation that walks them through the processes of installation, executing simulations, visualizing results, analyzing data, and creating custom MercuryDPM codes tailored to simulate their specific systems of interest. Overall, MercuryDPM represents a valuable tool for advancing the understanding of particle dynamics across a range of scientific fields.
