Rocky DEM workshop

Rocky DEM workshop

April 6, 2020

LEAP Australia and ESSS delivered a workshop on Rocky DEM software to graduate students and postdoctoral researchers from the Institute for Frontier Materials and the School of Engineering at Deakin University.

The presenters, Marcus Reis and Leon White, had originally planned to visit Waurn Ponds, but they had to deliver the workshop over ZOOM instead, because of the recent COVID19 travel restrictions.

The workshop covered the capabilities of this DEM software package in a broad context, and the researchers discussed its particular use in wear applications. The presenters also introduced some of the new features included in forthcoming versions of Rocky, expected to be released later in 2020.
