About

Simulate the response of materials to events ranging from short duration severe mechanical loadings, high pressures and even explosions. Ansys Autodyn provides advanced solution methods without compromising ease of use. Ansys Autodyn makes it easy to quickly understand and simulate large material deformation or failure. Autodyn has a range of models to represent complex physical phenomena such as the interaction of liquids, solids and gases; the phase transitions of materials; and the propagation of shock waves. By Integrating within Ansys Workbench and its own native-user interface, Ansys Autodyn has long led the industry in ease of use, enabling you to produce accurate results with the least amount of time and effort. The smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) solver completes the picture to provide everything needed for explicit analysis. Ansys Autodyn lets you select from different solver technologies so the most effective solver can be used for a given part of the model.

About

PFC, or Particle Flow Code, is a general-purpose distinct-element modeling framework available as two- and three-dimensional programs, PFC2D and PFC3D. It is designed to simulate synthetic granular and solid materials as assemblies of variably sized rigid particles, including disks, spheres, rigidly connected clumps, and convex polygons or polyhedra. It provides an efficient and flexible way to model the motion, interaction, breakage, flow, deformation, and failure of particle systems across geomechanics, mining, civil engineering, materials processing, and industrial design. PFC is especially useful for problems where the behavior of a material emerges from particle-level contacts, bonding, friction, rearrangement, fracture, or flow rather than from a continuous mesh. Users can represent bonded materials such as rock, concrete, or cemented soil, as well as loose granular materials such as sand, gravel, ballast, ore, powders, and grains.
