Question #237753 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/237753
Alexander Eulitz [Eugen] proposed the following answer: Hi Lida, I agree with jduriez, you should have a closer look at the manual. But nevertheless here are some hints: first of all your line "spheres.toSimulation()" is not necessary because "O.bodies.append(spheres)" is already adding your spheres to simulation. Furthermore it is not necessary to add a PyRunner Engine for your purpose of calculating a velocity. Just remove the Pyrunner and add this after you determined the timestep: #... velocity=0.0001 #it's a decimal point not a comma timeNeed=0.006/velocity iterNeed=timeNeed/O.dt O.run() #...

What is this variable is briefly described here https://www.yade- dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.Omega.dt. Unfortunately, if this does not help you so much (as it is normal for yade/DEM beginners), I'm afraid you will mandatorily have to give a serious attention to Yade manual (mainly User's Manual and DEM Background), to finish your computations. -- You received this question notification because you are a direct subscriber of the question. -- 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
