Build and Run Engineering Models in Your Browser
Why DCS Computing built engicloud.ai, what runs underneath, and how to find models for your industry and try them on your own work.
Agentic DEM Workflow with Aspherix & Claude Code
From a one-page spec to a verified DEM simulation: how the Aspherix Assistant skill for Claude Code built a rotating drum case — 100% physics-based.
Benchmarking the Computational Performance of Aspherix® vs. LIGGGHTS®
Aspherix® vs. LIGGGHTS® in three DEM benchmarks: silo emptying with 100,000 particles, a rotating drum mixer and high-velocity particle impact, on CPU and GPU.
Validation of CFDEM®coupling
Four validation cases for CFDEM®coupling: Ergun pressure drop, a pseudo-2D spout-fluidized bed, a bubble column, and two settling spheres (IBM).
Particle Scale Scouring
CFD-DEM with a volume-of-fluid solver and coarse-graining, applied to scouring at a pillar, a coastal revetment and rip-rap at a weir.
Advanced Wear Modelling
The Rossler-Katterfeld wear model in Aspherix®: sliding, impact cutting and plastic deformation, and how to calibrate it for equipment wear.
Calibration of DEM models
DEM calibration with four bulk solid tests and two industrial cases: agricultural soil (PÖTTINGER) and a rotary kiln (Treibacher).
Predicting particle attrition in agitated drying
How DEM-derived agitator torque and a 2D population balance model predict breakage of needle-shaped L-Threonine crystals during agitated drying.
From LIGGGHTS to Aspherix
How Aspherix® builds on LIGGGHTS®: complex particle shapes, chemical reactions and magnetic dipoles, CPU optimization, GPU acceleration and result consistency.
Simulation of mining applications
DEM simulations of a Liebherr dragline excavator, Finnie wear in a transfer chute and a ball mill liner, and a vibratory screener.
