Syntax¶

Defined in couplingProperties dictionary.

forceModels
(
    model_x
    model_y
);

model = name of force model to be applied

);

Note

This examples list might not be complete - please look for other models (forceModel XY) in this documentation.

Description¶

The force model performs the calculation of forces (e.g. fluid-particle interaction forces) acting on each DEM particle. All force models selected are executed sequentially and the forces on the particles are superposed. If the fluid density field is needed, by default a field named “rho” will be used. Via the forceSubModel an alternative field can be chosen.

Restrictions¶

none
