Hello all,

I am trying to calculate the parameters of resistance of a soil using a simulation of a shear box. I am using this example as a starting point [1].  I understand that I can control the normal stress through the parameter "limitMeanStress" and run several simulations with different values in order to get the angle of friction and cohesion. I have been checking the code and I am not sure how to get the shear stress and shear strain to obtain the peak shear stress value for every simulation. I have checked all the similar topics in the mailing list and I think is related to the stress tensor, but I  am not sure how to do it. If anybody can point me in the right direction it will be of great help. Thanks in advance.

Cheers,

Mario
