Open Source Software: Optimizing Granular Material Handling with Advanced ABAQUS Add-Ons In the realm of material handling and processing, understanding and controlling granular flow is pivotal. Our suite of ABAQUS User MATerial subroutines (VUMAT) add-ons offers a groundbreaking solution, providing detailed models to simulate granular flow physics accurately. This tool is essential for manufacturers and biorefineries facing challenges with equipment design and granular material processing, aiming to eliminate flow problems and enhance operational efficiency. The handling of granular materials, such as granular biomass feedstock, has long been a challenge in various industries, with issues like jamming and bridging in equipment like hoppers and screw conveyors. Additionally, biorefineries have encountered significant operational challenges, with most facing closure due to these unresolved flow problems. This underscores the need for advanced simulation tools to understand better and optimize granular flow dynamics. Our software package introduces four sophisticated granular flow constitutive models for ABAQUS: the density-dependent Mohr-Coulomb model, the Drucker-Prager/Cap model, ...
