Simulation Data

This document defines data classes and attributes of the objects in a DEM simulation. It is available in PDF and in HTML formats.

System of units

Physical quantities are assigned to many variables, not units. The actual system of units can be specified as one of the scene’s attribute (scene.units defines the units for time, length, mass). By convention, the notations for the quantities are:
  • time: [T]

  • length: [L]

  • mass: [M]

  • force: [F]
