Hello PingYang,

I guess your question is: Is it possible to simulate triaxial
compressions on cylindrical specimens?

If yes, first, you should open a new thread/question, or maybe look at
previous messages in relation to this topic (have a look there:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade). Second, if I may answer, it is not
possible to simulate triaxial tests on cylindrical specimens at the
moment. To my knowledge, there is no predefined engine capable of doing
that in the source code and you will need to implement a new one by
yourself or maybe code it through python scripting (is that even
possible?...). However, triaxial compressions can be simulated on
cubical specimens quite easily (either using external walls/boxes or
periodic boundary conditions). Have a look at the examples directory in
the source code, you may find useful things.

If no, sorry for misunderstanding your question.


Luc
