Status: Open => Answered Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer: Hi, > i know that facet does not have thickness, but maybe could exist a way to > give it, like a wall. Becouse i would like to make a comparison if is > possible. Walls have no thickness either. Boxes have thickness, but it is still completely unrelated to contact behavior. You could write facet.thickness=10 in python script for a comparison, it will not change the result. > then a clumped body made of facets can not be considered perfectly rigid Along this line nothing is perfectly rigid in yade since all contact models include elasticity. I agree with this view. The only place where we use a perfectly rigid approximation is when we calculate motion, defined by just translation and rotation.
