The simulator, which draws on the Discrete Element Method (DEM), can handle complex geometric shapes via composite geometries made of heterogeneous spheres of user-specified radii. Just like its Chrono::GPU predecessor, Chrono DEM-Engine is open-source. It and can leverage dual-GPU computation to accelerate the granular dynamics of system that comprise tens of millions of elements. Keyphrases: Code Validation, DEM-Engine, Discrete Element Method, GPU computation, chrono, particle method
