Yuxuan Wen posted a new comment: Hello Bruno, I am reading your paper that mentioned above and trying to formulate the same shear flow which is shown in your paper. I read your periodicSandPile.py code and take it as a benchmark to formulate the shear flow. But I still met some questions , may I ask you these questions? 1) In your periodicSandPile.py code, after using makeCloud to generate the sphere particles, in the following sentence you use O.bodies.append([spheres(s[0],s[1]) for s in sp] ) command to add the spheres in the body. I am so confused that in many other examples, makeCloud command is enough to generate the spheres, so why we need to add this following sentence? I tried to delete this sentence and the simulation just not works, the particles are out of the region that makeCloud command has defined. 2) In your paper, to avoid preferential slip zones near the plates, the first layer of spheres in contact with a plate is fixed to the plates by highly cohesive contacts. I am searching the method to identify the spheres that in contact with the plate and the way to add cohesive forces. Would you please tell me which wrapper or the module should I use? Thank you so much! I am a fan of you and really admire your work!
