Re: [Question #688203]: Simulation blocked after O.run in a conditional translation motion

 

Question #688203 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/688203

    Status: Open => Answered

Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
I have tried once more the code using Yade 2018.02b on Ubuntu 18.04 with
the same result - the problematic code is not reached at all..

Ibelow is the exact code I used (I had some problem with formatting the
copy-pasted code and got syntax errors)

If the code is problematic for you, then the yade version contributes to
the problem (and personally I don't want to search for problems with
2016 version..)

cheers
Jan

# gravity deposition, continuing with oedometric test after stabilization
# shows also how to run parametric studies with yade-batch

# The components of the batch are:
# 1. table with parameters, one set of parameters per line (ccc.table)
# 2. readParamsFromTable which reads respective line from the parameter file
# 3. the simulation muse be run using yade-batch, not yade
#
# $ yade-batch --job-threads=1 03-oedometric-test.table03-oedometric-test.py
#

# load parameters from file if run in batch
# default values are used if not run from batch
