Abstract
Recently, a European COST network was funded entitled ‘Open Network on DEM simulations (ON-DEM)’ which has many aims including increasing industrial utilisation of open-source codes in the area of particle simulation, increasing the collaboration between different codes, reducing there run-time and increasing the range of physics they can cover and improve their accuracy. The provision of best-practice advice, guidance and normalisation are also key objectives.
...
Open-source particle codes
Increasing industrial utilisation
Coupling particle codes with fluid/solid solvers
More efficient contact detection (dealing with large particle numbers and complex particle shape definitions)
Calibration of particle simulation
Optimisation of particle simulations
Standardisation of visualisation and post-processing tools for particle simulation

Review
ESCO is an very good conference for ON-DEM, providing exposure to a wide array of relevant and engaging talks. Many talks we attended were particularly pertinent to our objectives. Additionally, the conference offers valuable networking opportunities with experts in applied mathematics, numerical methods, and AI—areas currently underrepresented in our network.
We plan to continue attending the ESCO conference series in the future as part of ON-DEM. It is likely that we will also utilise this platform to host Working Group (WG) meetings for computationally intensive groups, such as WG 1.
Things to follow up
Alexander Freyer presented “Intro to libGDX: Java-Based Game Development”; maybe we should write a particle simulation game to both get people into the topic and teach the basics.
In Singh Balwinder entitled “Software Modernization of the 4-mode Modal Aerosol Module (MAM4) for Global Kilometer-scale Earth System Modeling” the software package Skywalker was presented. This could be used for detailed comparison of different open-source coes.
