EDEM-HyperStudy Connector: Installers and User Guide
The new connector is a plugin for Altair HyperStudy that enables the setting of various Altair EDEM parameters directly via a simple and intuitive workflow. The connector also allows an easier connection with Altair HyperMesh for geometry optimization and DEM-CFD coupling projects. Access to the parameters for EDEM materials, interactions, physics, kinematic, geometry and many others is provided by the connector as well as access to HyperMesh geometric parameters.

Installation & first steps
1. Execute the installer and follow the installer instructions.
2. Once the installation is finished, a configuration file will be saved in the path: %USERPROFILE%\.altair\EDEMDT_202X.
3. The connector can be started as standalone application (Windows Start Menu > Altair 202x > Altair EDEM-HyperStudy Connector)
or by running HyperStudy and adding EDEM as a model:
