About

LIGGGHTS is an open source Discrete Element Method particle simulation tool for modeling particulate materials, with a focus on industrial granular and granular heat-transfer simulations. LIGGGHTS stands for “LAMMPS improved for general granular and granular heat transfer simulations,” and it builds on the LAMMPS molecular dynamics platform to extend DEM capabilities toward practical industrial applications. It can be used to simulate systems where material behavior emerges from the motion, collision, friction, cohesion, heat transfer, and interaction of individual particles. It is suitable for analyzing powders, grains, bulk solids, particulate flows, packed beds, conveying systems, mixing processes, hopper discharge, material handling, and other granular systems where particle-scale behavior matters. LIGGGHTS is currently used by research institutions and companies worldwide for the simulation of particulate materials, especially where open source flexibility.

About

Particleworks is particle-based CAE and CFD software for simulating liquid and multiphase flows using the Moving Particle Simulation method. Its mesh-less solver and intuitive interface make the simulation process simple and fast, even for complex geometries with moving parts such as transmissions, electric motors, internal combustion engines, and other industrial systems. Unlike conventional mesh-based CFD, Particleworks discretizes the fluid domain automatically with particles, eliminating complex mesh generation and making it easier to analyze free-surface flow, splashing, sloshing, spraying, mixing, lubrication, cooling, oil behavior, water interaction, and highly viscous fluids. It provides one-stop GUI operation from pre-processing through post-processing, helping engineers set up models, run simulations, visualize results, and evaluate performance in a streamlined workflow.
