Hi Jan

Thanks for your insight into my query.

Particles of cohesive soilssuch as clays are platelike and very small in
size (e.g., cuboids of dimensions 1.0 μm×1 μm×0.06 μm). There are not
only mechanical interactions between two clay particles, but also
physicochemical interactions. Properties such as the stress-strain
behavior and shear strength of such a material result from a complex
microscopic interactions of particles and interparticle forces.

I am happy to start programming, provided Yade is capable of doing a 3D
DEM analysis on bodies of clay particles reinforced with fibres (with
random distribution in the clay soil). Just feel it is a lot to start
with as I am new.

So will Yade is capable of solving such applications?

Thanks
Mehdi
