Hanying Zhang is still having a problem:

I have tried boxes for the walls and it worked well except boxes can't interact
with cylinder, and that's why I use Pfacet for walls.

So I should define a wallIDs list then append Pfacet-wall to it?

One question, there are 8 nodes and I need to generate 12 Pfacets, so every
node would be reused if I clump pfacet+nodes into a clump for each of the
walls. Is that workable?
Besides, I find only Ig2_GridConnection_PFacet_ScGeom can generate contact
between cylinder and other kind of wall-like body, and I have been working on
fiber-reinforced sand so cylinder is the kind of body that I must use. Don't
really know is there any other body that I can use to simulate wall?
Or, can I just impose the motion of a Pfacet without triax engine?Is there any
attribute like O.area.force(I make up it)?
My idea is that:
(1)Generate sample by Pfacets pushing spheres and cylinders till they achieve
some certain positions(in a smaller box)
(2)triaxial test on sample.
Thanks for your help!
