Hi all,

The problem is regarding CPM model when it subjected to  tension failure.

This contact law has exponential softening damage in tension. Therefore,after 
some time, particles are subjected to fully damage during the simulation.at 
this point, value of the damage variable is equal to 1.

My problem is ,what will happen to the tensile contact after  when it is 
subjected to fully damage(omega=1)?



Referring to source code ConcretePM.hpp, I can see following line,

((Real,omegaThreshold,((void)">=1. to deactivate, i.e. never delete any 
contacts",1.),,"damage after which the contact disappears (<1), since omega 
reaches 1 only for strain →+∞"))

and ConcretePM.cpp

/* handle broken contacts */
        if (epsN>0. && ((isCohesive && omega>omegaThreshold) || !isCohesive)) {
                /* if (isCohesive) { */
                         const shared_ptr<Body>& body1 = 
Body::byId(I->getId1(),scene), body2 = Body::byId(I->getId2(),scene); 
assert(body1); assert(body2);
                         const shared_ptr<CpmState>& st1 = 
YADE_PTR_CAST<CpmState>(body1->state), st2 = 
YADE_PTR_CAST<CpmState>(body2->state);
                        /* nice article about openMP::critical vs. scoped 
locks: 
http://www.thinkingparallel.com/2006/08/21/scoped-locking-vs-critical-in-openmp-a-personal-shootout/
 */
                        { boost::mutex::scoped_lock lock(st1->updateMutex); 
st1->numBrokenCohesive += 1; /* st1->epsPlBroken += epsPlSum; */ }
                        { boost::mutex::scoped_lock lock(st2->updateMutex); 
st2->numBrokenCohesive += 1; /* st2->epsPlBroken += epsPlSum; */ }
                /* } */
                return false;
        }

I couldn't understand the lines in .cpp file with assert(body1), 
assert(body2).since if we want to use assert function in c++, there should be 
an expression. 


Thank you
Chanaka
