New question #706639 on Yade:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/706639

Hi! I am new to Yade. I am currently working on the simulation of the oedometer test of cylindrical specimens. We have obtained all .gts files of particles inside the cylindrical specimen by CT scanning. The corresponding clumps have been successfully imported into Yade using the method provided by [1]. 

Now what we want to do is to simulate the oedometer test. Referring to [2], there are two approaches for us to simulate subsequent procedures:
1. First, create cylindrical walls in the form of boxes. Then, fix those walls and create two plates (upper and lower). FIx the lower one and apply force on the upper one. 
2. Adopt the TriaxialStressController?

My comments and questions about the abovementioned two approaches are here:
1. This solution is easy to understand. But I am not sure whether it is reasonable since we have 800 particles.
2. I tried the code in [3]. It seems the wall will be broken. I am not sure whether those walls can be fixed so that can be used to simulate the oedometer test.

So, can anyone solve my questions and guide me in a possible way? Many thanks.
