This is because the actual representation of the cylinder as far as interaction with the soil phase is concerned is a collection of so-called BCE markers (of the same “radius” as the SPH particles) that are arranged in several layers *on* and below the cylinder surface. To get a visualization that corresponds to the actual simulation, you could either:
* Change the visual appearance of the cylinder to that collection of BCE markers. * Inflate the radius of the visualization cylinder by the radius of an SPH particle. --Radu From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Chiny Lan Sent: Friday, 30 December 2022 09:22 To: ProjectChrono <[email protected]> Subject: [chrono] problem with cylinder model Hi, I try to using a cylinder as wheel to do single wheel test based on the demo_FSI_SingleWheelTest. But the cylinder interact with the particles as if the radius of the cylinder becomes larger. There is always a gap between the cylinder and the particle. Then I test the demo_FSI_CylinderDrop using WCSPH json. It shows similar behaviors.
