Jérôme Duriez posted a new comment:
Just a minor comment regarding TriaxialStressCcontroller.thickness: this
one is just meant to measure correct dimensions for the packing which is
enclosed within surrounding boxes/walls, for the purpose of stress and
strain measurements.

(the engine first starts with differences of position -- along each axis
-- of the center of mass of these surrounding bodies, but it then needs
to subtract the thickness to have the correct "inside" length)

Obviously TriaxialStressCcontroller.thickness has to match the actual
thickness of that bodies in your simulation, but this is usually
achieved automatically.

All in all, should not be a big source of major problems anyway.
