Ansys Rocky Ready-to-use Scripts<\/h1>\n

Rocky Scripts are a powerful tool in Ansys Rocky\u2122 particle dynamics simulation software, allowing users to automate and customize their simulation processes, such as model configuration, data post-processing, and results analysis. Documentation containing technical and usability details for scripts created by Rocky Team Experts is in the Rocky Scripts Manual in Ansys Help<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Pre- and post-processing actions in Rocky can be fully automated with a Python-based PrePost scripting tool and besides the scripts created by Rocky experts you can create your own scripts, refer to the PrePost Scripting Manual on Ansys Developer Portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n
