Hello,

According to the yade documentation, Ig2_ChainedCylinder_ChainedCylinder_ScGeom6D only defines the connexion between chained cylinders, which enables the chained cylinders to be chained together. but it seems it doesn't define the contact and interaction between two chained cylinders. 

For example, if you create two beams using chained cylinder, and each beam is discretized into 5 chained cylinder elements, then there is no interaction between two beams. And the two beams can just interpenetrate one another.

Is that correct? If I'm right, then how to define the contact between two chained cylinders?
