    High-stress impact–abrasion test by discrete element modeling

    This work presents a discrete element model (DEM) of the impeller–tumbler wear test in order to investigate high-stress impact–abrasion mechanisms on steel plates with the use of abrasive granite particles. A ...

    A force-based grid manipulator for ALE calculations in a lobe pump

    In this paper, a time-dependant calculation of flow in a lobe pump is presented. Calculations are performed using the arbitrary Lagrangean Eulerean (ALE) method. A grid manipulator is needed to move the nodes ...
