Hello everyone,

I am trying to generate a packing of agglomerates which should be both dense 
and stable. I am using the procedure described here: 
https://github.com/yade/trunk/tree/master/examples/agglomerate

The packing generated using TriaxialStressController in compress.py is not 
stable in the presence of gravity. In other words, when I load this packing in 
simulation.py and run the simulation only with gravitational forces, the 
particles move quite a bit. Is there a way to make this packing also stable in 
the presence of gravity ?

I am trying to follow the solution proposed by Bruno here, but not quite sure 
how it works: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/263739
In this case, should I just run it first for few iterations with gravity and no 
triax.goal and then set the triax.goal as suggested.

Also, in the compress.py, is it not necessary to get unbalancedForce() below 
some threshold value ? I tried to put a threshold, but with the given 
parameters of triax.goal = -1e-5, the unbalancedForce() does not come down. 
However, if I use, triax.goal = -10000, then it comes down below 0.01 within 
few iterations.

Thanks
Varun
