Non-spherical DEM is under development in MFIX. Some other open source codes can do non-spherical DEM:

  • Mercury-DPM Developed by Mercury LAB, University of Twente.
  • YADE Yet Another Dynamic Engine, second incarnation of SDEC written from ground-up, GPL license.
  • LIGGGHTS: LAMMPS improved for general granular and granular heat transfer simulations, developed by DCS Computing GmbH
  • ESyS-Particle Developed at the University of Queensland, Australia
