New question #694100 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/694100

Goodmoring,

using this script [1] I've made some simulation with different value of SN 
parameter and PI  (25000, 50000 an 75000 for SN and respectively 2500, 5000 and 
7500 for PI). By comparing those result with real shear test performed on a 
Bristol Sand ( confining stress was set on 25, 50 and 75 kPa) I've observed 
that the simulated stress-strain graph is exactly the half of the stress-strain 
curve at each confining stress. I've tried to double SN and PI parameters on 
the simulation, and the results o a stress-strain curve match the real 
stress-strain curve at each confining stress. How is that possible? Is There 
something I don't understand that makes this possible, like a "trick" on the 
script?

Thanks for your help.
