Abstract
Accurate multiphysics simulations of particle-formed materials are required in various engineering applications. The Discrete Element Method (DEM) stands out for its ability to capture the complex behavior of such materials. However, the multitude of particle interaction models and parameters involved pose challenges for analysts and researchers. DEMLab addresses this issue as an open-source MATLAB software that offers a user-friendly environment for exploring DEM models in small to medium-scale problems. With a modular and extensible code, it facilitates immediate implementations for testing different formulations or developing new ones. This paper details the software capabilities and how it impacts academic activities.
