Discrete Element Method

Scr dem thumb.png

A first real-world application of Spherical Discrete Element Method is implemented, with a catchy name Yade OpenDEM. Handles shearing forces between spheres, cohesive forces with modified mohr-coulomb criterion. This is a reimplementation from ground-up of SDEC program, which has been used for over ten years in University of Joseph Fourier in Grenoble, and many PhDs were done with it.

Discrete Element Method with Local Moment Law

Scr mdem thumb.png

Discrete Element Method has been extended with law of conversion of momentum at the contact point. Resulting in a complete model for simulations of spherical elements. This has opened new broad variety of model applications, including deformable non-rigid body simulations, concrete and steel modelling. And later - after yade will have non linear models implemented - other kinds of plastic, viscoplastic, elastoplastic behaviours using spherical elements.

Yade is now good enough to produce some results. Those results are at first compared with results from other numerical computations software, then with real-world experiments. Several articles are planned to be written about it. For now you can have a short glance at what kind of results we can produce so far. Bear in mind that this is just a quick look at screenshots and nothing more.

Rectangular outflow

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Simulation of a granular outflow from rectangular hopper. You can see the funnel and wall layer.

Rectangular outflow frictionless

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Simulation of a outflow frictionless particles from rectangular hopper. Color denotes a local free volume. Seen an increase in free volume in the regions of shear flow due to the effect of dilatancy.

Rectangular outflow: frictional VS frictionless walls

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Simulation of a granular outflow from rectangular hopper. Front and back walls is frictional (right two) and frictionless (left two). You can see different flows pattern.

Cylinder outflow

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Simulation of a granular outflow from a cylindrical hopper with flat bottom.

Cylinder outflow: local volume of solid

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Simulation of a granular outflow from a cylindrical hopper with flat bottom. Particles are colored by local volume of solid. You can see the rarefaction in the shear flow region at bottom of the cylinder due to dilatancy.

Cylinder outflow: conical bottom

Hoppers jamming

How granular materials jam in a hopper. The simulation is inspired by experimental work of J.Tang and R.P. Behringer http://youtu.be/lWSJwZhqoQw


Ball Mill 2

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

A sample of simulation of movement of 125 000 spheres with YADE. This simulation take 14h30m for 50 000 iterations on laptop with Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T8100 @ 2.10GHz processor and 2GB memory. So, perfomance was 0.95 iter/sec.

See yade script here (it need this stl-file for the mill shape.)

Ball Mill

See yade script. The mill shape is constructed parametrically from within the script itself.


Surface triangulation and filling

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Sphere packing (regular) is generated to fit inside the horse-shaped triangulated surface (imported from file). The same horse is the used underneath, on which the spheres fall from above. Script is here


Representing beams and wires with connected cylinders

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

Connected cylinders with rounded ends (alternatively seen as Minkowski sum of a polyline and a sphere enables the description of interaction between wires or rods and particles, with a smooth interface. The simulation is defined in this script.

Solid-fluid coupling

The #evp parser function was deprecated in EmbedVideo 2.0. Please convert your parser function tag to #ev.

A new method for efficiently coupling the DEM with fluid flow is being developped as part of Yade. The development started as part of Emanuele Catalano's PhD (see a founding by Chareyre et al. 2011 here), and later included other developments. This video shows the flow of particle subjected to gravity and horizontal fluid flow. The periodic boundary conditions for the fluid are implemented by Donia Marzougui.

Discrete Element Method - 125 000 spheres

Dem 125k thumb.png

As first real-world application of yade Spherical Discrete Element Method is implemented. Handles shearing forces between spheres, cohesive forces with modified mohr-coulomb criterion.

125 000 spheres were generated in a cubical volume, and fell down in the graivty. The calculation took three days, and is available here in two versions - small and big.
