Effect of epsilonMax ??!!

 

Hi,

I met this case on Yade 0.20.2, but it may concern also Yade Bazaar.

I wrote a python script that  run  triaxial compression tests from an
xml file for an increasing value of epsilonMax (for example: 0.05,0.1,
0.15...,0.3). Each time epsilonMax is reached, a new Xml file is saved
and an only one change of the next epsilonMax occur in it.

Doing that, I noticed that the curve corresponding to the 0.3 of axial
deformation issued from the six simulations done as explained above does
not fit with the curve of a continuous simulation ran until 0.3
epsilonMax is reached.(more precisely, Only the first part corresponding
to 0.05 axial deformation does fit)

Can somebody tell me how could epsilonMax influence the results and what
if I would like to redraw the same curve for a continuous simulation
while stopping at any level of deformation and take it as a start point
for my next simulation ?
