Balls of steel (BOS) is an event-driven, hard-particles discrete particle method (DPM) simulator. BoS aims to be a minimal, extremely fast but easily extendable version of an even-driven (ED) simulator. It is currently in pre-alpha.
Use cmake to create makefiles. Then just 'make'. It is recommended that you build in a separate directory. For example, from the source code parent directory:
mkdir build
cd build
ccmake ../
then choose the desired cmake options, hit 'c' (maybe twice) and then 'g' to generate the makefiles. If no errors were reported, then
make
should provide you with a 'bos' executable.
Run as:
./bos 'config-file'
where config-file is expected to be a DEMDF file.
