What is Ansys Rocky?

Ansys Rocky is a high-performance particle simulation platform that applies the discrete element method to model the behavior of granular materials, powders, fibers, and other particulate systems. Developed for engineering and industrial applications, the software enables users to study particle interactions with exceptional detail and realism. Ansys Rocky supports realistic particle geometries, including non-spherical shapes, flexible and rigid fibers, 2D shells, and custom particle structures that closely represent real-world materials. Its multi-GPU solver architecture significantly accelerates simulation performance, making it possible to analyze large particle populations and highly complex systems efficiently. The platform includes advanced physical modeling capabilities such as wear prediction, breakage analysis, cohesion modeling, particle collision behavior, and material degradation studies. Engineers can integrate Rocky with computational fluid dynamics and finite element analysis tools to create multiphysics simulations that account for fluid flow, structural interactions, and particle dynamics simultaneously. The software also supports multibody dynamics, 3D scan imports, automated workflows, and customizable simulation scripting. Industries such as mining, pharmaceuticals, food processing, manufacturing, agriculture, chemicals, and consumer products use Ansys Rocky to improve equipment design and optimize operational processes. By reducing dependence on physical testing, organizations can evaluate design alternatives more quickly and lower development costs. Recent enhancements include engineering copilot functionality, expanded multiphysics coupling, improved GPU performance, and advanced automation features that further increase simulation efficiency.

What is Ansys Motion?

Ansys Motion, now integrated within the Mechanical interface, is an advanced engineering solution that utilizes a high-performance multibody dynamics solver. This innovative tool enables swift and accurate analysis of both rigid and flexible bodies, thereby facilitating a comprehensive evaluation of physical events by considering the mechanical system as a whole. Within Ansys Motion, four synergistic solving techniques are employed: rigid body, flexible body, modal, and meshfree EasyFlex, each offering remarkable capabilities for analyzing diverse systems and mechanisms in any configuration. It adeptly manages large assemblies featuring millions of degrees of freedom while accounting for flexibility and contact interactions. The use of standard connections and joints promotes easy integration and loading of these systems. An added advantage is the ability to perform simulations in Ansys Motion using the same interface as traditional structural analysis, allowing a single model to be utilized across various applications, which leads to considerable time savings. Moreover, this cohesive integration not only simplifies workflows but also significantly boosts the overall efficiency of engineering endeavors, making it an essential tool for modern engineers.
