Status: Open => Answered
Christian Jakob proposed the following answer:
hi emon,
to [1]:
You can generate spheres and replace them via a clump template, example
see:
https://github.com/yade/trunk/blob/master/examples/clumps
/replaceByClumps-example.py
note: Equivalent radius of the clump = radius of the sphere before
replacement
to [2]:
clumps are ridig, not deformable, not breakable. you can release members
from the clumps "by hand" using releaseFromClump(), example see:
https://github.com/yade/trunk/blob/master/examples/clumps
/releaseFromClump-example.py
but i think you want to have bonds, that can break while stress exeeds certain limit, right?
therefore there is a nice contact law CPM:
http://yade-
dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html?highlight=cpm#yade.wrapper.CpmPhys
but i am not sure if you can create bonded (clump-like) particle
assemblies with CPM ...
hope it helps,
christian
