[Yade-users] [Question #693769]: The whole view becomes very large at the end of a triaxial test
New question #693769 on Yade: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/693769 Hi, I am working on a triaxial compression test. Normally, the test ends with the view like Fig1 shows in [1], in which the model located at the middle of the view space. However, some times I got the situation like Fig2 shows in [1], in which the whole view space became very large so that the model looks very small. Fig1 and Fig2 are just for illstration of my problem, the two figures came from different models. Actually, there are additional tiny particles in the model of Fig2, so I thought the reason why I got what Fig2 shows may because that some tiny particles have been ejected away from the main model. I am not sure about this because all my particles are generated in the rigid wall boundaries which means they would not leave out of this boundary. Particles will not penetrate the rigid wall I think. Do you have any ideas for avoiding this problem?

Particles will not penetrate the rigid wall I think. "generating particles in the rigid wall boundaries" is NO guarantee that "they would not leave out of this boundary" NOR that "particles will not penetrate the rigid wall". It depends on many factors: - what "rigid wall boundary" is. wall ? box? what thickness? ... - what "penetrate" mean (the particles has some penetration by DEM definition, recall i.geom.penetrationDepth). If it means "go through", see below - simulation itself (difficult to say without any code) - tiny particles has higher probability to jump across wall without contact detection - might be influenced by time step - material parameters (mainly stiffness) - ... cheers Jan [1] https://yade-dem.org/doc/yade.utils.html#yade._utils.aabbExtrema -- 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

Question #693769 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/693769 Status: Answered => Open Leonard is still having a problem: Hi Jan, Thanks for your reply. > check use aabbExtrema() The initial size of my model is (vector3(0,0,0), vector3(0.07,0.14,0.07)) by using aabbExtrema(), The aabbExtrema of Fig2 shows is (vector3(0,0,0.05),vector3(0.126,2.7,0.078)). So I think some particles go out of the walls. > what "rigid wall boundary" is? Sorry for having not clearly described it. The walls I defined in my model are as that used in [1] for triaxial simulation: mn,mx=Vector3(0,0,0),Vector3(0.07,0.14,0.07) walls=aabbWalls([mn,mx],thickness=0,material='FrictMat') "penetrate" mean "go through" in my question. According to your suggestion, I think the time step could be the reason. And just a curiosity, From the results I got, the stress-strain response and volumetric response have not been affected by this situation. Does it mean that I can basically ignore this problem?

It depends on details :-) and other circumstances, but most importantly it is up to you :-) cheers Jan -- 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
