Dear Mr. Vaclav, Luc and all, thanks for your good co-operation. I want to keep mean stress constant where s1, s2 and s3 are independently not constant but there mean value (s1+s2+s3)/3 = constant e.g . 100 Kpa) remains constant though out the triaxial compression test. Actually I am in learning phase of YADE, so I hope your warm assistance to modify the engine if need. I am waiting for your better suggestion. Thanks all Sayeed, Saitama University.

Is it enough for you, or do you want to keep the mean stress constant while S1, S2 and S3 are independently not constant?
