Question #691584 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/691584
Jan Stránský posted a new comment: The compression stage is not necessary, of course. It depends on what you want to simulate. The original script probably simulated some experiment with prestress and one outcome is tanPhi = shear stress / normal stress (which is meaningless for zero normal stress). If you need to model only shear, then model only shear. For some cohesive materials, also pre-tension + shear could be applied :-) It is really up to you. 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
