Dear all, this may be of interest for the users of periodic boundary 
conditions.
Shearing continuously without meeting the "body larger than half-period" 
problem is now possible with cell flipping [1,2].
There is no restriction to the magnitude of the shear, as shown by the 
new example script [3].
