Continuum Modeling of Granular Material Flows and their Interactions with Solid Bodies
This project outlines a continuous approach for treating discrete granular flows that hold across multiple scales: from experiments that focus on centimeter-sized control volumes to tests that involve landslides and tall buildings. The motion of …
October 26, 2020Chrono Integration with Cognitive Systems Lab Driving Simulator
SBEL has partnered with the Cognitive Systems Lab (CSL) and Professor Sue Ahn’s lab on an NSF-sponsored project to better understand traffic flows in the context of human takeover from autonomous vehicles. For research on …
August 23, 2020Modeling Multiphase Flows with Incompressible SPH on GPU
Incompressible multiphase flows with complex interface geometries are involved in many industrial and environmental applications. In contrast to the widely-used Eulerian approaches, as a Lagrangian method, SPH handles the interface representation naturally without the need …
August 3, 2020SynChrono Moves Off-Road
The SynChrono autonomous vehicle simulation platform has recently added support for SCM deformable terrain, allowing vehicles to operate in time coherent off-road environments. The first video shown below is a proof of concept where a …
July 23, 2020Chrono::Sensor – modeling and simulating virtual sensors for robots and autonomous vehicles
Chrono::Sensor is a specialized module in Project Chrono for the modeling and simulation of sensors within a Chrono simulation. This simulation module is in development with current support for simulation of camera, lidar, GPS, and …
