How to control frictional force model?

Submitted by Mohammad Manjiu... on Thu, 09/20/2018 - 05:15

Hi,

I want to control the force model, It is now working as elastic after reaching the threshold it is plastic. If I stop the force my particle is going to initial position but I want to it's remains the same distance covered, again if I apply force it should be elastic again. For your better understanding please see the attachment pictures.

VORO++ compile and running issues

Submitted by qbbfjx on Wed, 09/19/2018 - 22:50

I am new to liggghts and voro. I was trying to compile voro++ in LIGGGHTS, the last step which is

make g++

shows errors as:

Makefile:106: recipe for target 'g++' failed
make : *** [g++] Error 1

I don't know why. Then I used

make mpi

which was working fine. I think I compiled voro successfully. However, when I tried to use compute voronoi/atom command and ran, it shows errors:

Invalid compute style

Can anyone help with this issues? It will be really appreciated.

Does LIGGGHTS 3.8.0 support multisphere superquadrics templates?

Submitted by Matt Muller on Wed, 09/19/2018 - 08:10

Hi Everyone,

I have been trying to figure out a way to pack particles with superquadrics and use that as a template for a multisphere superquadric. Does LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC currently support this kind of setup? Is saving a pack state and loading it even possible in general?

Kind Regards,
Matt

FORCE ON MESH AVERAGING

Submitted by mcsk2000 on Mon, 09/17/2018 - 18:03

HI,

This is the consecutive question of "FORCE ON MESH NOT CONSISTENT", https://www.cfdem.com/forums/force-mesh-not-consistent

It was told that the force on mesh should be averaged at least for 1000 time-steps.

What is the justification of the value of 1000 time-steps?

If I make the average with the different number of data, the statistics of the forces change a lot.

Would you give a hint for me to get the appropriate statistics of the forces on mesh?

Thanks,
Hakun

I am trying to make my own CAD file similar to the chute tutorial. I can model in SolidWorks and export as ASCII stl file. I do not understand what is "insertion face". Why is that important? and how do i obtain that?
