If you’re working with Discrete Element Method (DEM) simulations, LIGGGHTS is one of the most powerful open-source tools available. Installing LIGGGHTS and all its dependencies can be tedious, especially on Ubuntu, but we’ve made it simple for you with a ready-to-run installation script. One-Click Installation for LIGGGHTS We’ve prepared a shell script that installs LIGGGHTS on Ubuntu, including all required libraries and dependencies. This is […]
The installation of the coupling for Liggghts and OpenFoam called CFDEM can be difficult for beginners in the environment of Linux. While some program must only be downloaded from a website, it can be necessary for other programs to compile them on your computer. One of these programs for DEM simulations is Liggghts3.8.0. For the coupling CFDEM openFoam5.x and the coupling files must also be […]
When new roads get constructed or renewed the asphalt surface is usually done by using asphalt paving machines. These pavers are constructed to allow a truck to dump the warm asphalt in the front sections. The asphalt then gets conveyed through the machine and falls into the dispenser where screw conveyors spread the warm asphalt sideways. In this video we want to give an example, […]
High Performance Computing on a Budget A very common question in the comments and the mails we receive through our Internet page is about the computer system which one should get when starting simulations with liggghts or openFoam. To be fair this is not as easy to answer as it may seem. First of all. This depends very much on you financial situation and on […]
