Reply To: Rocky DEM Frequency Dependent Damping

[Lucas Bertollo Baggio]

Hello Can,

this study can be simulated by coupling Ansys Rocky (for the DEM side) with Ansys Mechanical (for FEA analysis). Some documents you can check to learn more about this coupling strategy are listed:

 

• Rocky Tutorials 12 and 15
• Rocky User Manual
• FEA-DEM Webinar 

Furthermore, the geometry excitations can be modeled by using the Motion Frames tool in Rocky, which you can also check on how to setup in Rocky User Manual. 

 

Feel free to reach out and continue this conversation. 

 

Best regards,

Lucas | Ansys Rocky
