[Question #237006]: Summary of contact orientations in a specimen

Hello,

I want to do to things concerning the particles' information:

1. List all the contact orientation inside a specimen (and after that show it on a polar diagram to validate its isotropic state) under a vector form (Vector3)
I read in the documents that sumForces might be helpful, right?

2. Currently I also want to export all the contact force with the branch vector that goes with that contact, in order to calculate the internal stress following the Love-Weber formula, which allows us to calculate the internal stress by the multiplication of force vector and branch vector. Here I have the script to export the normal force +  shear force

for i in O.interactions:
	if not i.isReal: continue
	fn = i.phys.normalForce 
	fs = i.phys.shearForce 

How to export it with the branch vectors?

Thanks in advance.
