Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: Hi, > All i want to do is shear a sample without ceasing.

In Yade, the particles are displayed in skewed periodic cell [2]. But in postprocessing stage, you can shift some particles by the k*period to make them look like being inside a cube (like your image). cheers Jan [1] https://yade-dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.InsertionSortCollider.allowBiggerThanPeriod [2] http://yade-dem.org/doc/tutorial-examples.html#periodic-simple-shear -- You received this question notification because your team yade-users 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
