Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: Hi Varun, change the creation of your top box in the following way. To be sure it works, I would modify also the bottom in the same way. to get a force reaction, O.forces.f(top_id) will return only the prescribed force. Use the following command instead (maybe +- plate_downforce, you can play a bit) sum( ( O.forces.f(i) for i in top_ids ), Vector3.Zero ) cheers Jan ######### # Top ######### topBoxes = [] for ix in (0,1,2): for iz in (1,2,3): topBoxes.append(box( # create 3x3 boxes with 1/3 cell size center=(xExt/6.*(1+2*ix),yExt - yLim + thickness/2.0,zExt/6.*(1+2*iz)) ,extents=(xExt/6.,thickness/2.0,zExt/6.) ,wire=False ,material='plate_mat' )) top_id,top_ids = O.bodies.appendClumped(topBoxes) # top_id is the clump id, top_ids is its members id O.bodies[top_id].state.blockedDOFs='xzXYZ' ###################### 2016-04-25 22:47 GMT+02:00 VG <[email protected]>: > Question #290950 on Yade changed: > https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/290950 > > VG posted a new comment: > Hello Jan, > > Thanks for your response.
