One of my main projects at Altair EDEM consisted of producing technical videos for the new company website. Various applications of EDEM were researched to learn what type of content should be presented in the videos. Suitable geometries were then created using a computer-aided design package and simulations were set up and run. Post-processing in EDEM and Excel was performed to visualise the data obtained. Finally, the videos were recorded, edited and presented in an attractive form to ensure the final product is delivered in a professional way.

During my work, I was also involved in working with API (Application Programming Interface) to define geometry motion with EDEM-MBD coupling and create custom properties for the particles. Standard C++ scripting was used in EDEM API. The six main educational videos produced included analysis of ore flow through a transfer chute, dump truck unloading, potato harvesting, excavator digging, tablet coating and combine harvester processes.
