New question #646457 on Yade: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/646457
Hi, I'm currently following along the paper "Benchmark tests for verifying discrete element modelling codes at particle impact level" by Y. C. Chung · J. Y. Ooi to verify yade as asked by my supervisor. In the benchmark test 8, it seeks to simulate the impact of two differently sized spheres with a constant normal velocity and varying angular velocities. However, from the code i had, the recoil vs. incident value seems to be quite off. I'm quite new to both yade and python, any help is appreciated! the following is my script: #benchmarks 8 from yade import plot import math import sys import numpy as np al_alloy=FrictMat( young=7.00e10, poisson=0.33, frictionAngle=np.arctan(0.40), density=2700, label='al_Mat') O.materials.append(al_alloy) dense_al=FrictMat( young=7.00e10, poisson=0.33, frictionAngle=np.arctan(0.40), density=2700*1000, label='al_dense') O.materials.append(dense_al) #nylon=FrictMat( #young=2.5e9, #poisson=0.40, #frictionAngle=np.arctan(0.4), #density=1000, #label'nylon_Mat') #O.materials.append(nylon) r=0.1 ang=4 vst=r*ang incident=vst/0.2 O.bodies.append([ sphere(center=(0,0,0),radius=r,material='al_Mat'), sphere(center=(0,0.65,0),radius=r*5,material='al_dense') ]) O.bodies[0].state.vel=(0,0.2,0) O.bodies[0].state.angVel[0]=ang #vy=O.bodies[0].state.vel[1] #vz=O.bodies[0].state.vel[2] #recoil=vz/vy O.engines=[ ForceResetter(), InsertionSortCollider([Bo1_Sphere_Aabb()]), InteractionLoop( [Ig2_Sphere_Sphere_ScGeom()], [Ip2_FrictMat_FrictMat_MindlinPhys(en=0.5)], [Law2_ScGeom_MindlinPhys_Mindlin()] ), NewtonIntegrator(damping=0.0,gravity=(0,0,0)), PyRunner(command='recoilangle()',iterPeriod=1) ] O.dt=0.1*utils.PWaveTimeStep() def recoilangle(): vy=O.bodies[0].state.vel[1] vz=O.bodies[0].state.vel[2] angular=O.bodies[0].state.angVel[0] vst=vz-0.2*angular recoil=vst/vy print 'Vcn:',O.bodies[0].state.vel[1],'Vct:',O.bodies[0].state.vel[2],'Angular:',O.bodies[0].state.angVel[0],'incident:',incident,'recoil angle:',recoil -- 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 : yade-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
