Re: periodic cell

 


I don't think it would work. The collider needs one value for wrapping
coordinates between zero and that number (separately for each axis). I
didn't check carefully, though.

I'm still thinking it could work but didn't try.
I commited some code for arbitrary (proportional) deformations that you can test with a new py script. It seems there is a growing offset between displayed cell and actual period (the second being the one used for interactions). No surprise, this is purely experimental.
I didn't touch AABBs and collider for now.

The only (small) change in the default behaviour is this :

NewtonIntegrator.cpp l.184

if(homotheticCellResize>=1) state->pos+=dPos;
//update velocity for usage in rate dependant equations (e.g. viscous law) FIXME : it is not recommended to do that because it impacts the dynamics (this modified velocity will be used as reference in the next time-step)
   if(homotheticCellResize==2) state->vel+=dPos/dt;

Merry Christmas all! :)

p.s. How can we do something like this? For now, it (apparently) runs in the background so that the second definition of velGrad is used for almost 2000 steps :

O.cell.velGrad=Matrix3(0,5,0,0,0,0, 0,0,-5)
O.run(1000)
O.cell.velGrad=Matrix3(1,0,0,0,0,0, 0,0,0)
O.run(1000)
