Units of Parameters

A computer code has no unit. It is up to you to decide what is the unit
of numbers you input.
Of course, you have to be consistent: if the radius of particles is in
meters, then the size of the box should be in meters as well.
If you prefer inch and you define forces in tons, then the stress should
be in tons per squared inch. And so on.

For strain controlled test, I will try and commit example scripts
shortly. Ring me if you don't see them coming in the next days.

Thanks Mr.Bruno,

Say the linear dimensions are in meters and if I need to apply a pressure of 100kPa, is the sigmaIso is 100,000 ?
Or, do I need to calculate the load in Newton?
I think it is pressure (not load).

Thank you

I don't know really. What is the unit of your mass density?

mass density in kg/m^2

Sorry for the mistake. It should be kg/m^3.

Thanks Mr. Bruno. Hope you will upload about the triaxial shear test

Thanks Chareyre, that solved my question.

I just commited some tutorial exercises for the triaxial tests.
You can download them simply by typing "bzr update", or if you use the
packaged version of yade you can browse them online here:

I hope it helps.

Hi, i am not sure why the above link says the resource is not found..Could you plz let me know.

There were some changes since 2011 ...

triax-tutorial can be found here:

Thank u.
I am novice to yade and I would like to know how to apply dynamic stress
(goal) along a specific axis in PeriTriaxController Engine.
