Description:

Bulk Flow Analyst™ by Applied DEM was used to simulate material flow through a silo. Bulk Flow Analyst's post processing tools offer a variety of options for displaying particle and surface data, including particle velocity, particle stress, age of particles, and more. In this example, the location of the particles at a specific time during the analysis was used to "group" the particles. Each group was then assigned a color, and we can watch the groups move relative to each other due to the flow pattern within the silo.
