Hi Vaclav,

I was wondering if something bad could happen in 
Law2_ScGeom_FrictPhys_Basic in case of multithreaded simulation.
We have a functor attribute "plasticDissipation" and in go() we have :

plasticDissipation +=
           
(shearDisp+(1/currentContactPhysics->ks)*(shearForce-prevForce))//plastic 
disp.

What will happen if two threads increment the value at the same time?

Bruno
