Hello Guys,

I just checked the source file of  Hertz-Mindlin model and found that the shear 
stiffness ks is a little different with that in Tsuji's paper (1992).  In the 
source file it is expressed as:
    Real Kso = 2*sqrt(4*R)*G/(2-V); // coefficient for shear stiffness" 
in line 58. See 
https://github.com/yade/trunk/blob/master/pkg/dem/HertzMindlin.cpp
But in Tsuji's paper, it is Kso = 2*sqrt(2*R)*G/(2-V), so a factor of sqrt(2) 
exists between these 2 expressions. 

Does it matter or is it just a typo? Should we correct it?

Thank you.

Regards,
Yuxuan
