Dear all,

I still have the desire to model a water-saturated flowing material. The fluid 
coupling will be too complicated. It requires to modify the C++ code, it is not 
feasible during my internship.

I turned to frictional viscous law. [1]
To simulate the presence of the fluid between particles, I thought I could use 
aabbEnlargeFactor and interactionDetectionFactor to create distant interactions 
between particles.

My question is : What is the behavior of the viscous law (or all other laws) 
when 2 fictive enlarged particles overlap ? (Like this 
http://prntscr.com/iwfv1v) 
Does parameters of material/physic/law is proportional to the "overlapping 
ratio" ? (0 when the distance between particles is > 2 * fictive radius and 1 
when their is a real contact between particles)

The fact is I want that the force exert by a particle on the other is 
proportional to the relative velocity and inversely proportional to the 
distance between particles.
Repulsive force when 2 particles get closer and "attractive" force when 2 
particles recede.
I think I will have to code a Python function to apply this kind of force on 
each particle.

Regards,
Nicolas

P.S.: Here is my actual code to run some tests : https://pastebin.com/7BNK4KJL
