particles rolling with high omega using rolling friction model epsd

Submitted by oranjesr on Sun, 04/19/2020 - 05:16

Dear LIGGGHTS users,

I recently use rolling frition model epsd for triaxial test simultation. When I create a bulk of particles, and let them settle under gravity, high omega is observed for alomst every particles, up to 500 rad/s. My particles have a radius from 1..10mm.

Can anybody help me with this.
