Swapnil posted a new comment: Thanks Jan. I am trying to start with the sphere. creating a script and running it later. Following is the script until now: from yade import pack,plot #create a cylinder and pack it with spheres ---------------------------------- pred=pack.inCylinder((0,0,0),(0,0,0.25),0.10) sp=pack.randomDensePack(pred,radius=0.01) O.bodies.append(sp) ---------------------------------- yade.qt.Controller() #create a steel sphere to act as the impactor ---------------------------------- idSteel=O.materials.append(FrictMat(young=210e9,poisson=.25,frictionAngle=.8,label="steel")) O.bodies.append(sphere((0,0,0.30),0.05,material=idSteel)) ---------------------------------- Now if I want to assign in the script a constant velocity of for example 0.025 m/s in the negative Z-direction to this sphere do I use the following as the next commands sphere.state.blockedDOFs=`z´ sphere.state.vel=Vector3(0,0,-0.025) or do i have to use the ID of this body and work as follows: O.bodies[the ID of sphere].state.blockedDOFs=`z´ O.bodies[the ID of sphere].state.vel=Vector3(0,0,-0.025) But when you run it using the script , you do not know the ID of the sphere. How do you retrieve the Id of the sphere created before so it could be used here. I am not sure if this is even a correct question. But I do not have the right idea :-) -- 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
