Hi Mohsen,

I meant to use Ig2_Polyhedra_Polyhedra_ScGeom, which from two colliding
polyhedrons creates ScGeom instance. Then you can use CpmMat,
CohFrictMat or whatever else which wokrs for spheres, but would not be
(currently) possible with PolyhedraPhys.

As far as I understand the code [1], sigmaCZ and strengthTau are used by
PolyhedraSplitter, which (under certain circumstances) break one
polyhedron into several independent polyhedrons.

Depending on OP ("polyhedral particles that they have cohesion between
themselves"), it could be the answer..

MWE later..
