Chutes
Chutes is breakthrough serverless compute for AI, at scale: a leading open source, decentralized compute platform for deploying, scaling, and running open-source models in production. Built for hyperscaling AI-powered products, it gives developers high-performance AI inference for top state-of-the-art open source models, ephemeral jobs, batch processing jobs, and much more. Chutes works around the clock to provide the latest open-source models minutes after release, so when a new model lands, builders can get access to what is next first. There is a Chute for everything, not just the LLMs you would expect: Chutes runs image, video, speech, music, embeddings, content moderation, and custom model workloads, always on and ready to scale. With Chutes, teams bring the code and let the platform handle the rest, using fast APIs, the Chutes SDK, or one-click deployments to run serverless AI code without infrastructure setup.

LIGGGHTS
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.

Simcenter EDEM
Simcenter EDEM is a high-performance Discrete Element Method tool for bulk material and particle simulation, designed to give engineers crucial insight into how granular materials interact with handling equipment across a range of operating and process conditions. It accurately simulates and analyzes the behavior of coal, ores, soils, fibers, grains, tablets, powders, rocks, crops, and other real-world materials. Users can get started quickly with extensive pre-calibrated material model libraries representing rocks, ores, soils, and powders, while validated physics models support dry, sticky, compressible, and more complex material behaviors. Simcenter EDEM can simulate complex, industry-scale particle systems involving many millions of particles with fast and scalable compute performance across CPU, GPU, and multi-GPU solvers.
