You have a point. It is a matter of interpretation, though. You act on a few bodies, but those bodies represent boundary conditions and you want to control the whole packing with them.... The same would be true for TriaxialStressController, which also controls only 6 bodies in fact... In the contrary case, the distintion would be almost meaningless, as among GlobalEngines, there would be perhaps ForceResetter and gravity engines. Then periodic engines (PeriIsoCompressor and PeriTriaxController would be in different groups, which doesn't seem very logical...) Some opinions from other people? v _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
