NAME
ESyS-Particle - HPC Discrete Element Modelling Software.
SYNOPSIS
mpirun -np 3 mpipython script.py
Parameter -np should correspond to the number of threads.
DESCRIPTION
ESyS-Particle ESyS-Particle is Open Source software for particle-based numerical modelling. The software implements the Discrete Element
Method (DEM), a widely used technique for modelling processes involving large deformations, granular flow and/or fragmentation. ESyS-Parti-
cle is designed for execution on parallel supercomputers, clusters or multi-core PCs running a Linux-based operating system. The C++ simu-
lation engine implements spatial domain decomposition via the Message Passing Interface (MPI). A Python wrapper API provides flexibility in
the design of numerical models, specification of modelling parameters and contact logic, and analysis of simulation data. ESyS-Particle
has been used to simulate earthquake nucleation, comminution in shear cells, silo flow, rock fragmentation, and fault gouge evolution, to
name but a few applications.
