Description

LIGGGHTS is an open-source simulation software that employs the Discrete Element Method to model materials composed of particles, particularly emphasizing simulations related to industrial granules and heat transfer. The name LIGGGHTS reflects its foundation on LAMMPS, improved specifically to enhance simulations of general granular materials and their thermal dynamics, thereby broadening the reach of DEM into practical industrial scenarios. This tool is adept at simulating a variety of systems in which the behavior of materials arises from the dynamics, collisions, friction, cohesion, thermal exchange, and interactions among individual particles. It proves beneficial for studying an array of applications, including powders, grains, bulk solids, particulate flows, packed beds, conveyor systems, mixing operations, hopper discharges, and material handling, particularly in contexts where the behaviors at the particle level are significant. Currently, LIGGGHTS is embraced by numerous research institutions and commercial enterprises across the globe, valued for its open-source nature and the adaptability it offers in the simulation of particulate materials. Moreover, its versatility makes it an essential tool in advancing research and development in various fields related to granular systems.

Description

SOLIDCast Casting Simulation software stands as the leading PC-based solidification modeling and casting design tool within the casting sector. This innovative software was created by thoroughly investigating and addressing the real-world challenges faced during the design and production of solid casts. Unlike many software developers who come from purely academic backgrounds, the team behind this simulation software boasts hands-on experience in foundries and the broader casting industry. Since 1985, they have leveraged their practical knowledge to enhance SOLIDCast and its associated products. The unique blend of expertise in software engineering and foundry operations has positioned SOLIDCast as the most pragmatic solution for professionals in the casting field. Additionally, SOLIDCast enables users to simulate the thermal variations that occur due to heat transfer during the solidification phase of the casting process. This capability not only streamlines workflow but also aids in achieving optimal results in cast design.
