EDEM 2020.3.1 Release Notes
EDEM 2020.3.1 contains fixes for the following issues:
- Performance of the EDEM coupling was slower than previous versions.
- Issues with contact data storage could lead to crashes and data loss at last timestep.
- Geometries would not import correctly from MotionSolve.
- A crash could occur when activating tracked collisions mid-way through a simulation.
- An error (-5) was reported when simulations contained a large number of geometry elements.


EDEM is high-performance software for bulk and granular material simulation. Powered by state-of-the-art Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) technology, EDEM quickly and accurately simulates and analyzes the behavior of granular materials such as coal, mined ores, soils, fibers, grains, tablets, and powders.
EDEM simulation provides engineers with crucial insight into how those materials will interact with their equipment during a range of operation and process conditions.
EDEM is used for virtual testing of equipment that handles or processes bulk materials in the mining, equipment manufacturing and process industries. Companies worldwide use EDEM to optimize equipment design, increase productivity, reduce operational costs, shorten product development cycles and drive product innovation.
The 2020 release includes new coupling solutions with multi-body dynamics software Altair MotionSolve and open source, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software OpenFOAM.
