Title:
  Buggy data in capillary files

Status in Yade:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Hi,

  ***** CURRENT SITUATION ******
  Current capillary files include some buggy data for dimensionless menisci 
volume (vol*), and filling angle delta2. Several examples are detailled in 
"prob.txt" attachment.

   Basically, on some lines, vol* and delta2 are discontinuous compared to 
adjacent lines. The discontinuous values are sometimes obviously wrong, with 
e.g. one vol* = 400 line 9704 of M(r=2). You may imagine the consequences on 
the construction of a soil-water characteristic curve...
  *******************************

  
  ****** HISTORY (explaining the current situation ?) ******
  Historically, these files come from a very first version of capillary files, 
that have been corrected twice. A first ("major") correction modified the 
volume values that were affected by a mistake during files construction (*). 
There has been a second ("minor") correction regarding the first lines of some 
files (**). Probably the discontinuous volume values existing now have been 
introduced during the major correction (*).
  ******************************************************

  
  ****** CORRECTION PROPOSAL ********
  After discussion with Luc Scholtes, some work has been done to correct the 
buggy volume / delta2 values that exist now. It has been decided to start from 
the very first version of the files. In this very first version no 
discontinuous volume values existed.
   
  But, discontinuous values of delta2, sometimes reaching - 6000 degrees have 
been now spotted in these very first files.
  To correct this, the lines including such discontinuous delta2 values have 
been simply erased. To do so, continuity has been checked with adjacent lines, 
spotting then errors like delta2 = - 6000 deg between delta2 = 55 and 54 
degrees, and also delta2 = 3 degrees between 22 and 22.
  Doing so, roughly less than 1% of lines have been erased.

  Discontinuous lines being erased, volume values have been corrected towards 
the same direction than during correction (*).
  **************************************

  
  ****** FINAL SITUATION AFTER POSSIBLE APPROVAL OF PROPOSED CORRECTION*******
  This work has been completed. It is not uploaded yet, time being given for 
people to check the current situation, and possible discussion about the 
correction proposal.

  In the brand new files (only in my PC as for now), there should be no 
discontinuous values of vol* and delta2 anymore, and volume meniscii should be 
correct.
