I am working on a project where I have to design the tractor loader in simscape and understande soil tool interaction. Is it possible to couple EDEM with Simscape ?

@KANGKAN - we have customers who use Simscape and EDEM in cosimulation. It requires writing an S-Function in C code that uses the Simulink APIs and the EDEM APIs (Application Programming Interface). While it can be done many ways, the most common method is to
- measure the position and velocity from Simscape
- pass that to EDEM so it can move the parts colliding with the soil
- within EDEM, measure the forces and torques of the soil on the part
- pass those forces and torques back to Simulink so they can be applied to the part
This interface requires a very small time step.
We have an example on the File Exchange that shows coupling with discrete element modeling (DEM) software.
