Hello,

@Robert, "one of Yade's polyhedra specialists"

I am afraid this "specialist" should be me.. at least this sphere-
polyhedra interaction is my code, I will have a look as soon as time
allows it..

@Nishat

> The polyhedra and sphere are touching initially, and the polyhedra moves in the direction of the sphere with a prescribed velocity.
> So a real interaction is expected to occur at the first time-step.

If they are exactly touching, it is somewhat indeterminate state whether the interaction should exists or not (some rounding error could make it one or the other state).
The velocity is not relevant here, as the motion evaluation takes place after interaction detection and evaluation.

disclaimer: I haven't tested any code yet..

cheers
Jan
