Teaching the Second Cycle candidate Discrete Element Modeling (DEM) in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) approaches with field applications.
Detailed and advance concepts of discrete element models, their implementation in Eulerian and Lagrangian frames of motion along with dense- and dilute-phase DEM methods are covered in computer associated engineering environment(s).
| 1. | To learn DEM and its basics. |
| 2. | To learn the building blocks of DEM in finite element analysis. |
| 3. | To be able to develop computational analysis systems involving DEM coupled with additional physics modules. |
| 4. | To optimize the discretization methods employed in Computational Fluid Dynamics-Discrete Element Method (CFD-DEM) couplings. |
| 5. | To apply the underlying theory to prominent DEM problems. |
