Open source FEM-DEM coupling
Abstract eng: Finite element method (FEM) and discrete element method (DEM) are leading strategies for numerical solution of engineering problems of solid phase. Both are applicable in different situations and sometimes can be beneficially coupled. Coupling of two free open source programs (finite element code OOFEM and discrete element code YADE, both with C++ core and Python user interface) is presented. Some of the basic coupling strategies (surface coupling, volume coupling, multi-scale approach and contact analysis) are explained on patch tests and simple simulations.
