Status: Answered => Open hhh_Chen is still having a problem: Hi Jérôme, Thanks for your reply, but I'm not sure what you mean. In my script, the consolidation process is dividied into 2 stages. In the first stage, the degrees of freedom in 'zXYZ' are blocked in order to ensure the direction of long axis for all particles is horizontal until the isotropic pressure reaches 90kPa. And in the senond stage, the blocked rotation along 'Z' is released till the pressure reaches 100kpa. I know that the blockedDOFs will only block forces (and acceleration) in selected directions and if the velocity is not zero when degrees of freedom are blocked via blockedDOFs assignements, the body will keep moving at the velocity it has at the time of blocking. Therefore, I set the linear and angular velocities as zero for all clumps before shearing. But in the shearing process, the clumps can still have angular velocity components along X and Y. Why did this happen? -- 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 : yade-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
