About

Aspherix is a state-of-the-art Discrete Element Method platform designed to simulate particle behavior in diverse systems and provide high-precision process modeling for industrial and research applications. It offers comprehensive DEM simulation tools for analyzing granular materials, powders, bulk solids, cohesive particles, polydisperse materials, and particle interactions across a wide range of environments and processes. Aspherix gives users strong control over simulation data, integrates information from multiple sources, and supports seamless analysis across varied formats, helping teams optimize operations and drive product innovation through data-driven simulation. With user-friendly dashboards and real-time analytics, the platform helps engineers move from complex particle behavior to fast, actionable insights.

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.
