[Question #671372]: VTK

 

New question #671372 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/671372

hi, I m new on YADE. I have problems with vtk recorder. I m able to export the particles positions of my deposition and the facets that I have, and I am able to generate vtp and vtu files but I am not able to set the conditions in paraview such that I can get a variation of velocities of sphere during collapsing of the slope. Also while executing this script I am getting a statement like 
"!joint cohesion total degradation!  | iteration= 2000"
So does  it have some reference why all the sphere are not falling down during collapsing of the slope above the persistent plane



from yade import plot, pack,utils,ymport

#### controling parameters
packing='iit_10_plane'
smoothContact=True
jointFrict=radians(20)
jointDil=radians(0)
output='jointDip30_jointFrict20'
maxIter=10000

#### Import of the sphere assembly
def sphereMat(): return JCFpmMat(type=1,young=1e8,frictionAngle=radians(30),density=3000,poisson=0.3,tensileStrength=1e6,cohesion=1e6,jointNormalStiffness=1e7,jointShearStiffness=1e7,jointCohesion=1e6,jointFrictionAngle=jointFrict,jointDilationAngle=jointDil) ## Rq: density needs to be adapted as porosity of real rock is different to granular assembly due to difference in porosity (utils.sumForces(baseBodies,(0,1,0))/(Z*X) should be equal to Gamma*g*h with h=Y, g=9.82 and Gamma=2700 kg/m3
O.bodies.append(ymport.text(packing+'.spheres',scale=1.,shift=Vector3(5,-32.4,-4),material=sphereMat))

## preprocessing to get dimensions of the packing

   R+=o.shape.radius
   if o.shape.radius>Rmax:
     Rmax=o.shape.radius

#### Identification of the spheres on joint (some DIY here!) -> work to do on import function textExt to directly load material properties from the ascii file

#### YADE windows
from yade import qt
v=qt.Controller()
v=qt.View()

O.dt=0.1*utils.PWaveTimeStep()

#### set cohesive links with interaction radius>=1
O.step();
#### initializes now the interaction detection factor to strictly 1
ss2d3dg.interactionDetectionFactor=-1.
is2aabb.aabbEnlargeFactor=-1.
#### if you want to avoid contact detection (Lattice like)
#O.engines=O.engines[:1]+O.engines[3:]

#### RUN!!!
O.dt=-0.1*utils.PWaveTimeStep()

O.run(maxIter)
plot.plot()
