It does have big influence; in examples/concrete/uniax.py, only displacement along the strain axis is prescribed, while all other (including rotations) are kept free (frictionless support, if you wish). UniaxialStrainer is quite flexible in this (https://www.yade-dem.org/sphinx/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.UniaxialStrainer.blockDisplacements and blockRotations). v _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
