Question #688400 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/688400
Status: Open => Needs information Jan Stránský requested more information: Hello, what version of Yade you use? > top_mat > bot_mat next time please make the question and code consistent > There is only friction between the two materials-no cohesion. not in the provided code > But even though I have a plate with a CNS load applied on top, during the shearing process, top_mat starts to ''FLY'' up instead of sliding and loses contact with bot_mat by pushing the CNS plate up, thereby defying both the CNS and the gravitational forces in the system. I am not sure why this is happening. I could not reproduce this (probably because there is cohesive connection between top and bottom) But, according to > top_mat has its boundaries free only in the Y direction where it is allowed > to move vertically up or down then your description seems logical to me.. Is Shear_Vel=0.1m/s realistic? Maybe a real specimen would also jump in reality moving horizontally 10 cm per second (just guessing what could be wrong). > P.S: I had modified the source code to have zero cohesion ONLY AT THE INTERFACE: iscohesive=0, undamagedcohesion=0 please provide the code 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
