About this document
Overview of UDEC Software Features by Yalın Umur Dogan is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document summarizes the Universal Distinct Element Code (UDEC), an early discrete element modeling software. UDEC uses polygonal elements that can be either rigid or deformable. Deformable elements are subdivided into triangles called zones. Nodes located at element vertices and edges define the deformation behavior. Contacts form between overlapping nodes and edges. UDEC includes options for material constitutive models, failure criteria, and contact detection between elements. It remains a widely used
