C O M Rocky DEM and Ansys Integration Rocky is fully integrated with the Ansys Workbench suite of products, providing engineers with the ability to perform various coupled analyses of particles simulation together with other physics such as structural and fluids. Such coupling can be performed using both 1-way and 2-way approaches, depending upon the nature of the problem to be solved. For example, Rocky can: Provide pressure on the surface due to particle impacts to Ansys Mechanical for FEA analysis on the structure Accept CFD fluid flow fields from Ansys Fluent and then calculate how the fluid flow affects the particle flow Perform two-way coupled simulations with Fluent where the fluid flow affect particle flow and particle flow affect the fluid behavior back ABOUT ROCKY Rocky DEM is a powerful, 3D Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) program that quickly and accurately simulates the granular flow behavior of different shaped and sized particles within a conveyor chute, mill, or other materials handling equipment. Several capabilities set Rocky DEM apart from other DEM codes, including its Multi-GPU processing capabilities, truly non-round particle shapes, its ability to simulate particle breakage without loss of mass or volume, and its deep integration with Ansys FEA and CFD tools. ABOUT ANSYS Ansys brings clarity and insight to customers' most complex design challenges through fast, accurate and reliable engineering simulations. Ansys technology enables organizations to predict with confidence that their products will thrive in the real world. Customers trust Ansys software to help ensure product integrity and drive business success through innovation. W W W . R O C K Y - D E M . C O M Ansys Workbench Project Schematic
