Re: [Question #636692]: soil-tire contact by FEM-DEM coupling
Question #636692 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/636692
Klaus Thoeni proposed the following answer:
Hi Ryota,
not sure if it helps but yade has deformable elements the tire could be
represented with. If you are interested in the soil-tire interaction I
would consider this an excellent approach. Nevertheless, if you are
interested in stresses in the tire it would not be suitable. Have a look
here [1] for examples of using such pFacet elements and here [2] for the
theory.
HTH
