Features

SudoDEM = sudo + DEM: a powerful ‘pseudo’ DEM simulator

Basic Features

Forked off YADE in 2014 with basic features:

• C++ and Python 3
• OpenMP acceleration
• Linux platform

More

You may concern:

• Learning curve — easy to get started
• Documents — YADE community and our quick guide
• Both 2D & 3D — Sure
• Non-spherical particles — the focus of SudoDEM
• Shape customization — the general interface of contact detection algorithms
• Efficiency — :)

Others

• The Hertz-Mindlin Model: for super-ellipsoids only
• The Rolling Resistance Model: for both spheres and non-spheres
• Flexible Membrane: constructed by using the finite element (FE)
• Easy Compilation and Installation: less dependencies, which help to compile and install SudoDEM on a PC or server without the root permission.
• Damping: local and viscous damping

On the list:

• MPI & GPU acceleration
• Escaping from Boost (on-going)
