Giulia Macaro is still having a problem:
I'm using 3036, but I've commented the 'if(scene->Periodic)' condition in the 
Bo1_ChainedCylinder_Aabb (line 328).
I'm sending you my script.

1.  Thanks for the detailed explanation. The example of the sphere on the 
inclined plane is quite useful.
But how many cells are reproduced during the simulation? Is it an infinite 
number? I assume that, if I have a sphere falling under gravity inside a 
periodic cell without any plane, it keeps on going out and in the primary cell, 
in loop for ever, is that right?

2.  I've run some more tests, and now it works fine with a large number of 
chains (Ne=30 in generatePipe() of my script) and blocking the rotations and 
lat translations.
If then I  make the cylinder with only one chain (Ne=1), and still block xXYZ, 
the cylinder doesn't move (as expected). Plus it seems to be periodic only on 
one side.
If I remove the constrain to the DOFs, and make the cylinder with only one 
chain, I've Segmentation Fault.
Could I just use the long chain with blockDOFs='xXYZ'? The cylinder seems to 
behave still dynamically..

3. Is there any difference between creating a periodic cell (O.periodic=True 
and O.cell.setBox()) and creating a periodic packing 
(particleSD(periodic=True))? 
My script works fine with O.periodic=True and particleSD(periodic=False), but 
gives weird behaviour when also particleSD(periodic=True).

4.  In the periodicSandPile example, it's not clear to me why the bottom
floor is not periodic. In my simulation I always have a periodic bottom
floor, and so the cylinder.  How do I make them non-periodic?

Thank you
