Du Zhang posted a new comment: Thank you for your reply and suggestions. > the biggest problem in "time length" of your problem Yes, a long time is the most important in my topic. I also looked at the tutorial examples and other examples you provided. There are a few concrete examples that look like the one I want to simulate, but unfortunately, they are all short-term as you said. I also read the document, from this I learned about time step and period. > some implicit integration scheme Actually, I don’t understand this very much. > Some "long-time-step" approach for "calm" periods without breakage, skipping > to explicit time integration when breaking occurs until it stabilizes, then > again "long-time-step" approach... It feels like a solution, but I don’t know how good the result will be and actually don't know how to start. > Are new contacts important to your problem? Contacts between grain and steel or grain and grain are important I think. But the contact model can be other.
