PhasicFlow

PhasicFlow is a parallel C++ code for performing DEM simulations. It can run on shared-memory multi-core computational units such as multi-core CPUs or GPUs (for now it works on CUDA-enabled GPUs). The parallelization method mainly relies on loop-level parallelization on a shared-memory computational unit. You can build and run PhasicFlow in serial mode on regular PCs, in parallel mode for multi-core CPUs, or build it for a GPU device to off-load computations to a GPU. In its current statues you can simulate millions of particles (up to 32M particles tested) on a single desktop computer. You can see the [performance tests of PhasicFlow](https://github.com/PhasicFlow/phasicFlow/wiki/Performance-of-phasicFlow) in the wiki page.
