Hi,
 
Thanks for confirming this. 
 
I tried getting the pdf, but I can't access it. I would be grateful if you send me that document. 
 
Also, a part of my future problem is to flow fluid at different pressure gradients through the desired geometry. I read your conference paper on a similar issue but in 1D where you coupled YADE and OpenFOAM. I am not very good at coding and this shall be my first time using LINUX. So can you just describe to me how I can the effort be reduced in coding this stuff and if there is an easier escape route now?
 
Thanks

Hi, Ripudaman:
 
According to your description, this model should be easily be modeled by YADE, you can look at one of my previous publication:
 
Feng Chen, Eric. C. Drumm, Georges Guiochon, 3D DEM Analysis Of Graded Rock Fill Sinkhole Repair: Particle Size Effects On The Probability Of Stability, 2009 Transportation Research Board Conference 
 
I can email you a pdf if you cannot find it.

Hi,
 
I am working on a specific project and I need to know if I can make a hole of specific dimensions at the bottom of a box such that grains (spheres) can flow out under the application of stresses etc? 
 
I can proceed with YADE only if this is possible. Thank you.
