Research Group Extended Discrete Element Method (XDEM)

Multi-Physics – The Great Unknown

The Extended Discrete Element Method (XDEM) project is developing a new generation of software that can be used for multi-physics applications.

XDEM Towards Advanced Multi-physics Simulation Technology

DoE PETERS blastFurnaceCharging

We develop advanced simulation technology for multi-physics applications. In particular, XDEM is a versatile and user-friendly software that explains and predicts the thermodynamics and motion of granular materials. XDEM has been used successfully in a wide range of applications, also in collaboration with industry.
