This is an example of a script that creates a new scenario and imports a EDEM 2017+ into it. As part of the importing process, the temporal evolution graphs of the reaction force and torque for each geometry present in EDEM simulation is created and saved into the scenario:
''' This scripts starts a new session, loads the project "Backhoe optimization", creates a new scenario and imports
the EDEM simulation "Initial design.dem" into the scenario. Also, the reaction force and torque graphs are
calculated and saved into the scenario during the import dataset'''
