Chareyre proposed the following answer: I second Jan. In fact you don't even need to compare two laws to see this effect. Try Cundall & Strack with Young=E1, then run the same test with Young=2*E1: different forces, similar velocity/positions. >i'm interested in how yade calculate the velocity and position if there isn't a contact anymore? Newtons says "acceleration = force / mass". It is not different with and without contacts. If contacts are present they will be added to force, else force is null (acceleration=0, velocity=cste) or it includes other things (e.g. weight). -- 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
