March 2024 update for DEMO "SAND - software for generation of packed beds"

The SAND code for packed bed generation has been uploaded to Mendeley Data and is available for free use by the scientific community. This Python-based open-source code, developed by the authors, aims to streamline the process of generating packed beds for various applications, particularly within computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Researchers and practitioners can access the code on Mendeley Data, where it is readily available for download and implementation in their studies and projects. The SAND code offers a user-friendly interface and efficient algorithms to facilitate the generation of packed beds, addressing the limitations of existing software tools. We encourage researchers to explore and utilize the SAND code to enhance their research endeavors in the field of packed bed simulations.
