Hi Ruochun, I've upgraded my hardware and now everything is working fine. I'm trying to run a co-simulation with the DEM-Engine where it would be necessary to pass the acceleration for each particle to the simulation. >From the code, I've seen that there are two options, either by adding an acceleration or using a prescribed force/acceleration.
If I read the comments from the code correctly, the acceleration is only added for the next time step but not constant over the DoDynamics call? >From my tests it looks like the acceleration has no effect on the trajectory of my particle. On the other hand, the prescribed acceleration can only be added during the initialisation, and not between DoDynamics calls. Is there an option to add an acceleration to a particle that affects the particle over the whole DoDynamics call?
