New question #681146 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/681146

Hello,
I used PeriodicFlowEngine to simulate Fluid-Structure Interaction, but I get ERROR :GS did not converge in 20k iterations (maybe because the reference pressure is 0?).I always faild to use PeriodicFlowEngine.I think I used PeriodicFlowEngine incorrectly.
Thanks for your any suggestion.
