This study is based on the development and methodology of building 3 dimensional discrete-,
and finite element (DEM-FEM) simulation engines, as well as the potential way of improving
usability and simulation speed. The program demonstrated here, BMEDEM3D, natively
supports discrete element, finite element, and mass spring simulations. Currently
no simulation software supports all these methods without the need for coupling several
different programs to achieve these results. BMEDEM3D contains a powerful Graphical
User Interface, which lets the user configure everything without needing to understand
programming.
