EDEM: Application Programming and Coupling Interfaces

EDEM Application Programming Interface

EDEM simulations can be customized and extended using the EDEM Application Programming Interface (API)​.

With the EDEM API users can write:​

• Custom contact models to model new particle–particle and particle–geometry interactions​
• Custom particle body force models to apply new forces and effects to the particles in the simulation​
• Custom particle factory models to create new methods of particle generation – to define non-standard positions, distributions or flow-rates​
• Define and work with EDEM Custom Properties, creating custom particle and geometry properties, increasing the scope of user’s custom models​
• Import 3rd party vector or scalar field data which can be referenced by custom physics models

Code Highlighting

Inline code: variable

Code block:

porridge = "blueberry"
if porridge == "blueberry":
    print("Eating...")

Math

In-line math: x+y=z

Block math:

f(x)=;2(x+4)(x−4)(x+4)(x+1)

Fragments

Make content appear incrementally

{{% fragment %}} One {{% /fragment %}}
{{% fragment %}} **Two** {{% /fragment %}}
{{% fragment %}} Three {{% /fragment %}}

Press Space to play!

A fragment can accept two optional parameters:

• class: use a custom style (requires definition in custom CSS)
• weight: sets the order in which a fragment appears

Speaker Notes

Add speaker notes to your presentation

{{% speaker_note %}}
- Only the speaker can read these notes
- Press `S` key to view
{{% /speaker_note %}}

Press the S key to view the speaker notes!

Themes

• black: Black background, white text, blue links (default)
• white: White background, black text, blue links
• league: Gray background, white text, blue links
• beige: Beige background, dark text, brown links
• sky: Blue background, thin dark text, blue links

• night: Black background, thick white text, orange links
• serif: Cappuccino background, gray text, brown links
• simple: White background, black text, blue links
• solarized: Cream-colored background, dark green text, blue links

Custom Slide

Customize the slide style and background

{{< slide background-image="/media/boards.jpg" >}}
{{< slide background-color="#0000FF" >}}
{{< slide class="my-style" >}}

Custom CSS Example

Let’s make headers navy colored.

Create assets/css/reveal_custom.css with:

.reveal section h1,
.reveal section h2,
.reveal section h3 {
  color: navy;
}
