Not so, if you mean staticity criterion like "I want error on sigma<10e-3 in the simulation", and this is how unbF is usefull. If you set damping higher, or if you modify the damping method (keeping loading rate constant), it will be reflected in unbF. So, you can adjust the loading rate in order to keep unbF constant, and expect the same order of error. Of course, it needs prior tests to decide what unbF correspond to this 10e-3 error on sigma, but this is required anyway whatever the non-staticity measurment. > Eh, alright.... I think this has become too confused a discussion to be > meaningful. I think the important point is : Non-staticity is affected by physics but also by numerical artifacts, coming from the integration scheme (the "numerical wave" part), affecting the relaxation delay, and affected by the number of grains. The latest is dominant in the quasi-static regime for large number of grains. Hence, applying energy concepts (or more generally physics) for this question is not fully adressing the problem, and it will not replace numerical experiments.
