Ali Abdallah posted a new comment: Hello Robert, I am trying to study the filters used for the protection of the dams and dikes. So basically I am creating samples having the same PSD as the one found on the site and I am trying with different porosity ( for now I am working with dense one). I am also investigating the effect of the shape of the particles on the filtration process, I am working for now with spheres and later I will try to create samples from polyhedra... I was reading the two papers published for PFM and I understand that they are using Delaney tessellation to obtain finite element volume of the pore space which only work with spheres. Honestly, I am not so familiar with fluid computations, so I have no idea how it is possible to resolve capillary action and forces on arbitrary shapes. So to sum up, I will create a sample that emulates the filters found on the dikes, then I will create a thin layer of fine particles with a specific size. With the flow introduced I want to see if these fine particles can pass the filter. Thank you Robert for helping me. -- You received this question notification because your team yade-users is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
