DEM SOLUTIONS

EDEM is the market-leading software for bulk material simulation. Powered by state-of-the-art Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) technology, EDEM quickly and accurately simulates and analyzes the behavior of bulk materials such as coal, mined ores, soil, tablet, and powders. EDEM simulation provides engineers with crucial insight into how bulk materials will interact with their equipment during a range of operation and process conditions. By including EDEM as part of their design analysis, engineers can include high-quality and realistic representations of bulk materials in other CAE tools such as Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and Multi-body Dynamics throughout the design cycle.

Using EDEM in combination with Abaqus provides engineers designing bulk materials handling equipment with a detailed understanding of the impact materials have on their designs. The EDEM-Abaqus sequential coupling enables engineers to export realistic bulk material loads from EDEM and use them as direct input to Abaqus FE simulations. Using high-fidelity loads provides engineers with greater insight into equipment performance and means improved design accuracy. By removing the reliance on hand-calculation and assumption to determine equipment loading, engineers using EDEM with Abaqus are also able to reduce the frequency and cost of expensive physical prototyping.eBook: EDEM-Abaqus coupling for Optimized Equipment Design: ebook.EDEM Partnership WebpagePress release annoucning EDEM-Abaqus solution
