Question #201791 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/201791
Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: Hello Matej, there are several possibilities to make such geometry in Yade. All of them works with facets (triangular elements), that represents the geometry. So you can: a) use some method from yade.ymport module [1]. Various formats are supported - gmsh, gts, stl, unv. This will load facets (triangles) from a file (which was somehow prepared in advance). See for example unv example [1], the mesh was created using free mesh generator Salome [6]. b) create the geometry directly in python script using gts module [3] (this documentation should be improved), see for example [4] or [5]. If you have already the geometry in a CAD model that can save it to readable form, we can implement methods to import another format :-) good luck in your work and if you had any questions, just ask :-) Jan [1] https://yade-dem.org/doc/yade.ymport.html [2] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~yade-pkg/yade/git-trunk/files/head:/examples/test/unv-read/ [3] https://yade-dem.org/doc/external.html#module-gts [4] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~yade-pkg/yade/git-trunk/view/head:/examples/funnel.py [5] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~yade-pkg/yade/git-trunk/view/head:/examples/funnel.py [6] http://www.salome-platform.org/ On 1.7.2012 10:35, Matej wrote: > Question #201791 on Yade changed: > https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/201791 > > Matej posted a new comment: > Hello jduriez, > > thank you for your quick answer. > > My question would be, how to produce the geometry of the core?
