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
Simufact Welding is a versatile product line that delivers extensive capabilities for simulating the elastic-plastic behavior of materials alongside structural welding processes. This software encompasses a variety of welding techniques, enabling users to model and simulate numerous thermal joining methods, including conventional arc and beam welding as well as brazing. Furthermore, it allows for the modeling of heat treatment processes, variations in cooling and unclamping setups, and the mechanical loading of welded structures. It is essential to identify critical distortions related to assembly, bulging, imbalances, and clearances during the simulation process. Users can also explore and enhance clamping tools before making any financial commitments to tool investments. This software aids in determining the most effective welding directions and sequences, ultimately leading to improved welding outcomes and more efficient production processes. Additionally, it supports engineers in refining their designs for optimal performance and reliability.
