Prof. George Bergantz and its team at the Department of Earth and Space Sciences, University of Washington, are simulating volcanic eruptions and ash plumes using the MFiX-DEM code. The advantage of DEM is that the movement of each crystal inside of the volcano can be tracked. The objective is to better understand what is happening
