Question #688685 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/688685
Othman Sh gave more information on the question: I have some updates. I realized that since I'm fixing the spheres in their position and I don't want any deformation in the packing, I don't need the mechanical engine so I removed it (This was based on answer #7 in [1]). The errors are now fixed but I don't get any results. For instance, flow.averageVelocity() is nan. Would you please help?
