[Yade-users] [Question #694664]: Tiny particles don't react with the wall

New question #694664 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/694664

Hi,
I have a sand model with extral tiny particles among the pore space of the 
sample, and I use this model for triaxial compression test. The boundary 
condition is simulated by six rigid walls (use 
walls=aabbWalls([mn,mx],thickness=0,material='FrictMat')).  And I use 
GlobalStiffnessTimeStepper(active=1,timeStepUpdateInterval=100,timestepSafetyCoefficient=0.8)
 for setting the dt.

However, I found that at the end of the simulation (where axial strain = 40%), 
many tiny particles stay at their original places, which means that these tiny 
particles didn't react with the boundary wall during the simulation, the 
example figure could be find at [1].

I guessed it is that there was no contact detection between these tiny 
particles and the top wall so that these particles passed through the top wall. 
Then I set the timestepSafetyCoefficient from 0.8 to 0.1 to decrease the dt 
(not sure if it is correct), but I gained the same result as [1] shows.

My questions are: (1) The higher the timestepSafetyCoefficient, the more safe 
the dt is? Or the lower the timestepSafetyCoefficient, the more safe the dt is? 
(2) Is there any other way to let the missed contacts being detected correctly 
during the simulation?

Thanks very much!

Leonard

Hi Bruno,

I think u are right. But I would like to have a model that two hard
particles are in contact with each other and another soft bonding
material spread in the interspace. for example, you have a box of glass
beads compacted well and then inject glue into gaps until it fulfills
all the space.  So in this case, when two particles are in compression,
the stiffness is mostly dependent on the stiffness of the particle
itself. cause they are in contact and soft bonding material could be
ignored. But when you pull them away from each other, the bonding
material should play the key role of stiffness.

Best,
Aaron

Because the ordinary pressure is determined by the intersecting
polyhedron between two contact objects, you could classify the type of
touch in step here https://bestdehumidifier2021.com/  with the overall
form and local form (which include angularity) of that intersecting
polyhedron.
