[Yade-users] [Question #693469]: questions about plotDirections

2020-10-14 Thread Leonard
New question #693469 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/693469

Hi,
I have few questions about plotDirections[1] :

1. Every time I use utils.plotDirections() I can get a figure, my stupid 
question is how to save that figure automatically during the simulation?

2. There are two kinds of sphere particles in my model by using different 
materials (e.g., Mat1 and Mat2), the plotDirections() plots the distribution of 
overall contacts. What if I want to plot Mat1-Mat1, Mat1-Mat2 contacts 
distributions seperately?

3. Just a curiosity. Normally in fabric analysis, papers like to make the rose 
figure symmetric by plotting a pair of contact vectors for each interaction 
(i.e., one vector from sphere1 to sphere2 and another from sphere2 to sphere1). 
So I wonder if it can be done using plotDirections()?

4. May I ask yade developers what is the idea to plot the rose diagram of 3D 
vectors to a plane (let's say xy plane)? Project all vectors to the xy plane to 
gain the corresponding 2D vectors and draw the 2D rose diagram?
I am asking this because if question2 and 3 couldn't be solved using the 
build-in functions in yade, then I will output the contact vectors and draw 
these diagrams in python.


Thanks!
Leonard
