Commenting on: 2011 EDEM bulk particle behavior visualization contest winners’ gallery

AMD FirePro team sponsored the 2011 EDEM Visualization Contest. The entries represented a wide range of applications of EDEM being used in engineering design, industrial R&D and academic research, addressing a wide spectrum of bulk materials handling and processing challenges across industry. The winner’s gallery features the top 5 videos and top 5 still images.

At last year’s SC10 EDEM demonstrated a 25-fold acceleration (compared to CPU alone) as the result of porting their EDEM MCAD/MCAE particle simulation application to OpenCL running on AMD FirePro graphics cards. They displayed the accelerated visualizations across six 24” displays using Eyefinity.
