New features:
- New geometry data (vtk files and monitors) to output forces and heat transfer exerted by DEM particles onto walls.
- Option to remove small particles (below a given threshold) in DPM simulations, including DEM, CGDEM, SQP, and GSP.
- New keyword FREEZE_EXIT_DES_VEL (prevent particles from falling back in the top outlet).
Improvements:
- Better heat conduction efficiency in GSP explicit model.
- Data check to detect heat capacity discontinuity.
- Better handling of wide Particle Size Distribution for CGDEM simulations.
- Enable high-DPI scaling in GUI.
- Option to switch to dashboard view when starting run.
Notable bug fixes:
- Fixed bug in solids time step update during simulation.
- Fixed bug in keyframe data linked to inlet velocity.
- Fixed bug in restart file that was not saving neighbor collision data.
- Fixed overflow issues with CHEMKIN thermodynamic data on Windows.
- Fixed keyword bc_hw_s argument mismatch in GUI.
- Fixed floating point exception when generating the mesh.
- Fixed "File in use" error on Windows.
