[Question #261529]: a cylinder as a single body

Hi,

I need to create(or import) a cylindrical-shape body and as I see in any case this cylinder is presented by an assembly of facets which means several bodies.

However, what I want to do is measuring the viscosity of a material. It means we apply a moment on a cylinder surrounded by spheres  and we measure the shear rate (angular velocity). 
So, the problem is how can we treat the cylinder as a single rigid body?

Thanks .
