New question #694110 on Yade:

Hello,

I am interested at whether there is interaction between the particles in a 
clump. So I searched the questions and found one with the clarification that 
there is no interaction between the particles in a clump, see below:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/403339

In this question, Mr. Jérôme Duriez answered with a example code:
******** Example **********
O.bodies.append(sphere(Vector3(0,0,0),1,fixed='True'))
O.bodies.append(sphere(Vector3(0,0,1.99),1,fixed='True'))
O.bodies.clump([0,1])
O.step()
O.interactions.has(0,1) # returns false here (true without O.bodies.clump() 
line)
***************************

He said that the example code will give a "False" at the end. However, I tried 
his example code and found that the result is "True". I tried many other times 
and found that there is interaction between the particles in a clump.

I am thinking that, if the bodies are generated by "O.bodies.append()" and are 
in contact with each other, even we clump them in the next step, the 
interactions between these bodies will not be removed, instead, these 
interactions will be in a constant state. Am I thinking correctly? I will be 
much appreciated if anyone could help me, thank you!

Regards,
Yuxuan Wen
