[Question #656538]: Measuring Force, Trapdoor displacement and Surface displacement

 

New question #656538 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/656538

As per the question put forward by Henry  applying this code below,

How do you measure the following and extract the data for : 
1) the FORCE  in the middle, 
2) The FORCE on the Left 
3) The FORCE on the  Right 
4) The displacement on the trapdoor (middle ) with time
5) The surface displacement if any with time  
 Below is the link to an illustration on this requirements;  https://www.dropbox.com/s/v8kcbqvjnzx0mqs/Data%20collection.pdf?dl=0
 Thank you
