Course Summary

This course introduces the co-simulation solution between EDEM and RecurDyn a multibody-dynamics tool from FunctionBay. Combining EDEM with RecurDyn allows engineers to introduce realistic bulk material behaviors to their multi-body dynamics simulations, and offers engineers unrivaled insight into how material loads are transferred throughout a mechanical system.

During simulation, the coupling transfers the realistic material loads from EDEM directly into RecurDyn, where they are used to calculate the effect on equipment dynamics. The updated dynamics are then passed back to EDEM to provide realistic force feedback throughout a simulation.

Course length:
This is a short course that comprises 1 lesson. You will find out how to set up the co-simulation between EDEM and RecurDyn and how to start the co-simulation.

Certificate of Completion:
A certificate of completion is available when all modules are complete.

Notes:
Prior knowledge of EDEM and RecurDyn is assumed. If you are unfamiliar with EDEM you can take the Overview of EDEM course.
