LIGGGHTS® - User Forum

Hi Everyone

I dont know if this problem is a post-processing or a LIGGGHTS problem. I hope this is the right forum.

I ran the "chute_wear" example in (LIGGGHTS 1.2.1). During visualizing the results in Paraview, I get an error which looks like the wear prediction function does not work right.

I show in the attached 3x files a Paraview view of the model from above (at the same timestep for all 3x files):
- "wear.png"
- "shear.png"
- "pressure.png"

Looking at "wear.png", it appears that:

Hi, Christoph,
I read some papers about Janssen's equation. I have noticed that the friction angle of wall is involved in this equation. i know there is a command to define coefficient of friction, e.g. ' fix all property/global coefficientFriction peratomtypepair 1 0.7 ' , but as i understand, this 'coefficientFriction' should be for particles, so, how could i define coefficient of friction for wall?

thanks,

Hello Christoph,

I don't manage to use dump local, because I have some difficulties to understand the manual.

I compute some variables:
compute e-data all pair/gran/local history torque

For example, How can I dump the history :
dump dmp all local 2000 post/essay c_history

Please, can you help me by writting an example of dump local ?

Hi,
How can I measure the packing fraction of static piling in cylinder?
Thanks in advance..

Hi, all

The input files for liggghts of an undrained triaxial test have been attached. Someone has sent me e-mail for this request. Actually, there is no inconvenience for me and I am pleased to share this.

I am a beginner and this example is not that good(you could see its q-p result in the ods file attached). This may be due to the velocity of compression is too fast or I did not use general equation to calculate q and p. If there are any problems you find or any improvement you give, please tell me cause I also need your help. Thanks for that.

Hi all,
Is there any way to set a parameter in LIGGGHTS to account for rolling resistance?
Thank you in advance,

Hi, everyone, i'm new here. I used LIGGGHTS to simulate pouring problem. The balls are poured into a cylinder under gravity. After the calculation, i got the pressure on the bottom of wall. I would like to know this relationship between this pressure and the weight of balls. Based on soil mechanics, i know the pressure on the bottom wall should be equal the the weight of balls divided by the bottom area (Here i need to mention i am not familar with particle mechanics). Anyone can help me?

Hi
There is error when new beta version starts to write restart file in the end. I tired with both beta versions and also changed system. Error is:

Hi Christoph,
I am dumping force on base (mesh CAD) due to granular packing in cylinder, Base is moving downward. Practically the weight ( hence force along z-axis) felt by base should be constant during course of time but is it changing linearly. I am attaching the file herewith. Commands in the script are given as under:

...
fix cad2 all mesh/gran/stressanalysis base.stl 1 0.01 5. 5. 10 0. 0. 0.
...
fix movecad all move/mesh/gran linear 0. 0.0 -0.00082 cad2
....
dump dumpstl2 all mesh/gran/VTK 50 post/cad2/dump*.vtk stress cad2

Hi Christoph,
I have problem with new versions, i poured particles with version 1.1.9 and now I can run continue my simulation with new versions. Today i deleted the old version so I need LIGGGHTS 1.1.9. The following is error message when i run the restart file with 1.1.10 and 1.2 Beta:

......
