Question #247006 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/247006
behzad majidi posted a new comment: as for Jan; What I mean about Boxes is that, we have the option of "fixed=False" which allows it to move and since it has already density assigned, it can and it does move because of gravity acceleration. However, I think it has only 3 DOF's. I wanted to see if we can change facets to dynamic bodies. Anyway, this is not important if as you guys said I can use Polyhedra for the purpose of grains. Yes, what I need to to is import gts or stl into Yade and treat them the same way as polyhedra. The problem with current implementation of polyhedra is that we cannot have that much control on its shape. But I have already certain irregular-shape grains as stl. as for jduriez; The reason I wanted to assign properties such as density to facets is that (as I mentioned above for Jan) to import gts as facets and treat them as polyhedra of clumps! So I wanted to make them Dynamic bodies. I think, according to all I can conclude that the best way to deal with the issue is using polyhedra. To do so I will need; 1- find a way to import gts/stl and define it as polyhedra in Yade 2- Define a polyhedra-sphere contact law -- 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
