Ansys Rocky is a 3D Discrete Element Method (DEM) modeling program that simulates how a set of particles interact with other particles and the various boundaries that represent the conveyor chute, mill, mixer, plow, coater, or other kind of bulk materials handling equipment being analyzed.
The PrePost scripting provides lower-level access to Rocky’s data structures and simulation results. This library enables interaction with Rocky, facilitating the configuration and simulation of a project from scratch, analysis, and exportation of simulation results. Moreover, it empowers you to perform advanced computations that extend beyond Rocky's standard feature set.
The Solver SDK enables you to develop custom modules that integrate into Rocky. A Rocky module is a compiled library that attaches to the Rocky solver at strategic points during the simulation, allowing the execution of custom code.
The PrePost scripting and SDK are available for Windows and Linux in:
PyRocky is a Python client library for remotely controlling Ansys Rocky, which is the most powerful software on the market for performing DEM (Discrete Element Method) simulations.
