Particle Simulation Becomes Even Faster

| By Chemical Engineering

The latest release of EDEM, Version 2.0, is said to set a new benchmark in particle simulation modeling software. EDEM 2.0 is now the fastest and most-highly parallelized discrete-element-modeling (DEM) software on the market, claims the firm. Vestion 2.0 features: faster solver with new multi-core parallel that can computer on up to eight CPU; a new compact-file format, which provides a significant reduction in file size; a tenfold increase in visualization speed; and built-in video generation capabilities. EDEM provides companies with a tool to substantially reduce the number of physical prototypes and tests required to get a product to market, or a process onstream. — DEM Solutions, Edinburgh, Scotland
