Hi all, Thanks for the answers. Yes, I was trying to generate a dense packing, now it works with an higher value of porosity (basically that one by default).
A question concerning the compaction phase. I understood from Bruno's explanation that I can choose between two possible solution: 1) moving boundaries or 2) expanding the particles' radii. In the first case I got that the final stage is achieved according to the sigmaIsoCompation (isotropic stress) value I choose. But in this case I cannot control the value of porosity (I mean, the porosity and the isotropic stress are not independent, but here I choose to get a specific value of isotropic stress that will correspond to a certain porosity). My question is: is it possible, with the second method (expansion method), to choose a final target porosity? In my case I would like to run the triaxial test starting with a certain value of porosity. Then I see that there is another flag called isotropicCompaction. Well, could you explain how it works? Since, actually it seems not working when I try to use it. Thanks a lot, Chiara _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
