Re: [Question #178830]: on sample generation to model the real granular sand

 

Question #178830 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/178830

Chareyre proposed the following answer:
>do you mean the sample after istropic compressed is the initial state?

If you are calling isotropic compression the phase where we grow
particles, yes, it is what I meant.

>How can we generate a sample of porosity 0.36 before any load for test
in yade with makecloud?

How to prescribe porosity and psd without any load is an open question I
think. If this is what you have in mind, you should try and imagine a
new sort of algorithm (although maybe K. Bagi proposed something that
was almost doing that, not sure). There is for sure no script or magic
button to do that in Yade.

Saving /loading as suggested by tranviet will erase the interactions,
but it is a bit artificial since they will all be back after iteration
1.
