Jack – Chrono doesn’t use a particular system of units. The units are up to the user. Once you decide which units you want to use, then express all the constants using that set of units. Stay consistent. Also, as a sanity check, once you think you got it, run a simple test to confirm that the results look good. Then go back to the actual problem you care about.

From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Jack Wagner Sent: Saturday, September 7, 2024 11:14 PM To: ProjectChrono <[email protected]> Subject: [chrono] Information on Young Modulus Units for Rigid Terrain I am trying to run simulations using as accurate information about terrain types as I can, which includes modifying Rigid Terrain json files using information like coefficient of friction and Young's Modulus. Specifically for the latter, I am trying to figure out what units Project Chrono uses for the Young's Modulus in order to accurately portray different types of interactions. I couldn't find it while roaming through the documentation, is there any information on what the units of measurement is for the Young's Modulus in Project Chrono? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "ProjectChrono" group.
