Re: [deprecated list] About the easiest method to obtain the contact force of each particle?

 

Thanks Janek, is this similar to :ncb->physicalActions->find(idUnbal,actionForce->getClassIndex()).get())->force ??
However this gives the total force (unbalanced force), what I need is only the contact force, is there any way to extract that?
Thanks again for your help.

the sum of all forces acting on each body is stored in physical actions / bex
size of this container == number of bodies
