The simulation of vast numbers of rigid bodies of non‐analytical shapes and of tremendously different sizes that collide with each other is computationally challenging. A bottleneck is the identification of all particle contact points per time step....

Krestenitis, K., Weinzierl, T., & Koziara, T. (2017, September). Fast DEM collision checks on multicore nodes. Presented at 12th International Conference on Parallel Processing and Applied Mathematics (PPAM) 2017, Lublin, Poland

Many particle simulations today rely on spherical or analytical particle shape descriptions. They find non-spherical, triangulated particle models computationally infeasible due to expensive collision detections. We propose a hybrid collision detecti...
