Hi all,
I have a code that generate a cloud of spheres and compress the cloud to a
certain porosity. It works well when I make the cloud with specific radius and
rRelFuzz. However, when I try to make the cloud with specific size distribution
using psdSizes and psdCumm, the code run but the spheres will freeze and not
compact. Can you please help and let me know what went wrong? My code is below.
Thank you,
Othman
