I would like to calibrate material parameters to match macroscopic properties using uniaxial traction and later triaxial compression tests. Is there some widely used, pre-generated sphere assmebly that has properties such as isotropy and "reasonable" radii variance that could be used? (Something like that should be part of Yade, I think).
If no, what procedures to you recommend to create such assembly? How many sphere should I go for? I will work soon on triax test which will have "true" hydrostatic confinement (by using delaunay to detect the solid edge and applying forces at relevant spheres) - that will solve the problem of restricted dilatance for triax (right, Wenjie?).
