gridSpacing and verletDist optimization
I have a question regarding the optimization of the the values of the verletDist and gridSpacing variables for the neighbor search algorithm. Specifically, I have observed a substantial dependence of the simulation time on the values of the verletDist and gridSpacing variables. I know that the gridSpacing must be greater than twice the maximum particle radius plus the verletDist, and the verletDist must be small enough to detect contacts early on. However, I was wondering if anyone had any insight on optimizing the variables to maximize the speed of the simulation because I have observed that simply setting the gridSpacing to slightly larger than twice the maximum particle radius plus the verletDist is not always optimal. Is there any way to predict optimal values?
