Question #198183 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/198183
Luc Scholtès proposed the following answer: Hi Ning, as Jerome said, you have to consider that yade deals with spheres and not circles. If you want to create a "2D sample", you have to define the third dimension of the make cloud fonction approximately equal to the maximum radius of your spheres (make cloud generates assembly in a box if I remember well). I am pretty sure this works for spheres. Not sure for clumps though... Moreover, as Jerome precised, you will then have to block some of the DOFs of the elements to actually force the model to be 2D: for o in O.bodies: body.state.blockedDOFs='zXY' should work assuming that you choose (x,y) as the 2D domain. -- You received this question notification because you are a member of yade-users, which is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
