Question #690104 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/690104

Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
> generally speaking, can we say centroid of the body instead of the
center of mass of the body?

not really in general. Especially in the case of facets, where
b.state.pos "by default" is NOT a center of mass (or centroid), but
center if inscribed circle [1]

cheers
Jan
