Question #707370 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/707370
Status: Open => Answered Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer: Hi, Quasi-static thresholds may be a matter of choice / patience before publication in the DEM literature ;-) One could for instance aim for unbalancedForce() being under 1%, e.g. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/nag.2774 or https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352380817300357 But I'm not sure I completely understood your question, since there is no "gap" connection in my mind. If it is a matter of closing a hole by pushing on a stack of particles, the more particles you have (if they keep the same size when you change the number), the higher the force sustained by the wall during closing the hold (the more the springs at the particle-walls interface) -- 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
