[Question #293368]: Young modulus of concrete

 

New question #293368 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/293368

Hello everyone,
I want to use the boundary controller “peri3dController” to test the property of the concrete material, but I found that the Young modulus of x direction will change when the rate of x direction's strain and y direction's strain changed(x is perpendicular to y), but in the finite element method and in the elastic stage it will not change. I use the first code to calculate the Young modulus of x direction when there had strain in x direction and is no strain in y direction and save the model. Then in the second code I load the model and calculate the Young modulus of x direction when there had both strain in x and y direction.  Can you give me some suggestions? Thanks a lot. This is my code.
