[Bug 1663899] Re: SetCohesionNow & setCohesionOnNewContacts /triaxial test

 

Hi, I realize that there are plenty differences between your script and the example script, depsite your statement that it is similar to the original.
Please be more accurate on which change caused the crash, and provide us with a way to pinpoint it (e.g. triggering the crash or not by changing just one line).

Title:
  SetCohesionNow & setCohesionOnNewContacts /triaxial test

Status in Yade:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello all,

  can I turn on setCohesionNow, setCohesionOnNewContacts in triaxial
  test as well? if yes, why I set these parameters the porosity &
  friction does not change and I face with below error? while without
  these consideration code works.

   "Friction: 33.25 porosity: 1.0python: malloc.c:3720: _int_malloc: Assertion `(unsigned long) (size) >= (unsigned long) (nb)' failed.
  Aborted (core dumped)"

  the triaxial script is not different from the original one, I just
  copy it here if you need to know about the inputs.

  Thanks,
  Seti
