This is impressive!
We have slower (Stokes) flow and denser material than in the fluidized 
bed problem. The 1D soil example you show is a good prototype of the 
type of problems we want to solve.
Our mesh is tetrahedral with spheres at vertices.


What is the balance between Yade and openFOAM cpu time in your examples?

p.s. I created a launchpad team "DEM fluid coupling", waiting approval 
for the mailing list.
