The computation of effect and motion of a large group spherical particles, where the particles interact with one another and with other surfaces/flow is known as discrete element method (DEM). Granular particles can be simulated in Abaqus using DEM in Abaqus/Explicit Analysis. Abaqus also has another technique to model particles and the technique is known as Smoothed…
