The decrease of meniscii volume happens, because liquid bridges were erased during the simulation (set isBroken = True ;)

I am using getCapillaryStress(triax.boxVolume) maybe the problem is in boxVolume? maybe it is zero ... I will check that.


Zitat von Jerome Duriez <[email protected]>:

Hi Christian, thank you for the confirmation and the figures. Could you please comment them a little, so that I get the problem they show ? In fact, I would deduce from them that there is a problem for Pc* < 1000, where the water volume starts to decrease when suction decreases, whereas I would wait for continuous increase of the water volume (= saturation ratio) in this case..

And I was not aware there could be problem with getCapillaryStress : as for me, I can use it without problems..

Hi,

I followed your discussion on capillary law and I can confirm, that
the meniscii volume is not correct for a suction higher than 1500. In
my simulations I reduce suction from 5000 to 0 and erase liquid
bridges from bottom to top of the model (see attachment). The
calculation of forces seems to be uneffected (see sum of cap. forces).

Thanks for spoting this!

Christian

btw, getCapillaryStress() is still not working (see file)...

Ok. I'm getting zero water volume for contacting spheres for an

Great. It means that 1500 was probably the max value when generating the
data files.
There could be a warning in the code if Pc*>=1500, but it is only
relevant for a specific set of data files...
The max should be defined automatically when reading the data.
