Klaus Thoeni posted a new comment:
No BUG, the kn values are of course not the same since the stiffness
depends on the radius (and the radius of the particles in the clump is
much smaller). However, if no damping is used the clump and the sphere
do behave almost exactly the same. This means that kn is adapted
correctly for clumps. My suspicion is that the mass must be adapted as
well and it is neither the mass of the clump nor the mass of a particle
of the clump.
