Klaus Thoeni proposed the following answer:
Hi David,

let me try to answer your questions:

@ 1) you can connect cylinders or spheres in order to represent a beam
or wire. In addition we have a remote interaction model to represent
wires. The following papers give more details:

http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.compgeo.2012.10.014

@ 2) the user defines length and size

@ 3) depends on what you want to simulate. E.g. for a wire mesh it is
the same

And finally a question to you:
What kind of problems are you trying to simulate?

Cheers
Klaus
