Re: [Question #689446]: Cylinder with a large size in the periodic cell

 

Question #689446 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/689446

Description changed to:
Dear all,

I would like to simulate the spreading process of spherical powders by a
roller under the periodic boundary condition. The roller is represented
by a cylindrical particle. Since the radius of the cylindrical roller is
larger than a half of the periodic size. The simulation always
encountered the error "Segmentation fault (core dumped)". Please give
some suggestions about how to add this large cylinder into the periodic
cell.

Sincerely appreciate your help.

Best regards,
Pengfei
