In this course, participants will learn Discrete Element Method (DEM) using Rocky DEM software.
The course and materials are only available in English. A growing number of engineers and design professionals are using discrete element method (DEM) to help understand the behavior of their particulate, bulk solids, and material handling equipment. Most materials around us start from or end up as discrete solid particles of many shapes, characteristics, and physical properties. Particulate systems and bulk material account for the majority of areas where engineers can create a meaningful impact on reducing product waste and increase material handling equipment performance. From food and agriculture to mining and metal, and from pharmaceutical to consumer products and other process industries, engineers face a number of challenges. A few examples of these challenges include reducing material spillage, clogging, clomping, predicting equipment wear and improving solids flowability. Other examples of challenges engineers face are improving product uniformity, reducing product defects, and account for or avoid particle breakage. Discrete Element Method (DEM) enables understanding of particle dynamics accounting for particle-particle and particle-equipment interactions. Companies in a broad range of industries are using DEM to help reduce the cost of product development and improve product quality and uniformity and enhance manufacturing processes as well as improving the performance of material handling equipment and machinery. In this cornerstone course, you will discover how particle simulation can help define material trajectories, optimize belt tracking, extend equipment lifetime and capacity, and predict force, torque, and power consumption of equipment, enabling companies to remain competitive by designing better processes and products. Participants can learn how to use Discrete Element Method analysis and Rocky DEM, a powerful particle simulation tool, with the expertise and confidence gained from training that includes good balance between concepts and practical activities.
Participants will gain fundamental understanding of Discrete Element Method (DEM) modeling, and application of Rocky DEM to analyze results from granular and discrete materials systems.

The student has the flexibility to attend the training at the most suitable time of their daily journey during the active access period. The videos, texts and exercises were previously prepared, revised and structured, allowing for the best asynchronous use.
To access the exercises, the student must have access to the Rocky DEM software license installed on their computer. If the student does not have the license, a 30-day temporary license will be provided. In this case, after registering on the course, you need to send to cursos@esss.co an e-mail requesting your License.
The class forum provides for access to DEM experts to answer questions related to coursework. In this collaborative environment, questions will be answered by ESSS specialists as soon as possible. To ensure rapid response to your questions please refrain from sending requests through other communication channels. For Rocky DEM related projects and customer support questions, the ESSS technical support channel is available exclusively for clients with active support and maintenance licenses.
A single payment through the PayPal platform.
*If you are unable to make the payment through the Paypal platform, please send us an e-mail: cursos@esss.co
