About

Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) is a free, open source tools for modeling and visualizing fire-driven flows. FDS is a computational fluid dynamics code that numerically solves a form of the Navier–Stokes equations for low-speed, thermally driven flow, with particular emphasis on smoke and heat transport from fires. It uses large-eddy simulation to represent complex fire-plume dynamics and can be applied to scenarios involving fire, wind, sprinklers, ventilation, geometry, materials, and other conditions that influence fire behavior. Users define a scenario through text-based input files, run the calculation with FDS, and analyze the resulting data. It displays output from FDS and CFAST simulations using OpenGL-based 3D graphics and scientific visualization methods, including animated smoke and tracer particles, two- and three-dimensional shaded contours, iso-surfaces, temperature fields, and flow vectors showing direction and magnitude.

About

Yade is an extensible open source framework for discrete numerical models, focused on the Discrete Element Method. Its computation parts are written in C++ using a flexible object model that allows independent implementation of new algorithms and interfaces, while Python is used for rapid and concise scene construction, simulation control, postprocessing, and debugging. Yade is designed for researchers and engineers who need to create, run, inspect, modify, and extend particle-based simulations through scripts, interactive commands, graphical tools, and reusable simulation components. Simulations can be built from specialized generators or constructed directly with Python scripts, giving users flexibility for developing custom models, importing geometries, reusing code, and controlling the full simulation loop. It represents each simulation as a scene containing bodies, interactions, and resultant forces, with bodies defined by geometry, material properties, state variables, etc.
