Hi Jerome,

Thanks for the tip. I did not mean to use triaxial to simulate the
direct shear experiment, I only wanted to impose a constant normal load
on the sample using the engine and then set the upper box with a
prescribed constant horizontal velocity.

Hi,

Please see https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/683111and
replace therein "KinemCNSEngine" with "KinemCNLEngine".

PS : I guess one has to be very optimistic to hope a "triaxial" stress
controller may simulate a direct shear experiment ;-)

[Yade-users] [Question #683390]: Constant Normal Load for Direct Shear Test

2019-08-26 Thread Akm
New question #683390 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/683390

Hello,

I am a beginner in Yade trying to create the simulation for a direct shear 
test. I am using a faceted box to create the sample. 
But I am unclear on how to provide a constant load at the top plate to simulate 
the condition.

 I tried to use the triaxial stress controller but couldn't do it as the top 
box of the sample has to move horizontally and Triaxial stress controller 
doesn't work that way.  Kindly let me know your suggestions on how to achieve 
this. 

I can upload the code in launchpad if you need to take a look. If someone could 
upload an example code for direct shear, I would be more than happy.
