Hi,

> a specific adhesion law adapted to sintering (viscous in my case).

There is a confusion between adhesion and traction going on here.
Adhesion is (in yade at least) a strength, i.e. an upper bound for the contact force. If there is a viscous term then it probably is a term in the actual force, not a term in the upper bound.

Making adhesion a function of whatever you like is really not a problem,
nothing to implement. Making actual force a function of something is
another story.

In other words, if you don't disclose the governing equations in full it
is impossible to tell if/how current framework makes it possible, or if
it needs an extension.
