Learn how Rocky 2022R1 now offers an integrated Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method to help simulate the interaction of solid particles with fluids with high viscosity, high deformation and/or complex free surfaces.
Engineers running particle simulations now not only demand faster solution times but also want to increase the fidelity of their DEM simulations using millions more particles. Fortunately, advances in GPU capabilities have meant that Rocky DEM customers can take advantage dedicated GPU-based solvers - but what is the hardware sweet spot for different problem sizes? Here we review a comprehensive set of benchmarks completed by the Rocky DEM developers comparing solve times on CPUs vs GPUs.
