Diego Abarca posted a new comment: Thank you again for you time Jan, Indeed, by all measures volume appears to stay constant. What you say about shape changing may be the issue, but it feels weird that stresses drop to zero just because of particles relaxing. I would expect particles to reaccomodate and stresses to drop under constant volume conditions in some cases, but particles floating is not something I had in mind. I guess I'll have to find another way to impose constant volume. About Ip2_FrictMat_FrictMat_MindlinPhys() and Law2_ScGeom_MindlinPhys_Mindlin(), they originate from the contact force model "Hertz-Mindlin no micro-slip solution" that was implemented (I think) in [1]. I don't think they were the problem as I also ran my code using Ip2_FrictMat_FrictMat_FrictPhys() and Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_CundallStrack() and the issues persisted. Anyways, thanks again for all the help Jan.
