ABSTRACT:
A method for modeling the interaction of granular material with equipment includes the steps of numerically representing the material with an array having a plurality of cells, determining which of the cells may be unstable using a self-organizing computational model, and modeling the motion of the unstable cells using the model. Preferably, output is provided in virtual reality format in real time.
