pack a volume with specified spheres

I think this is what you need:
https://yade-dem.org/doc/yade.pack.html?highlight=makecloud#yade._packSpheres.SpherePack.makeCloud
See also the script "psd.py".

Chareyre,

Maybe I don't understand the "makecloud" very clearly. Here is my modification:
 sp.makeCloud(Vector3(-1,-9,30),Vector3(1,-13,32),num=2000,psdSizes=[.0118/2,.0236/2,.0475/2,.095/2,.132/2,.16/2,.19/2],
psdCumm=[0,.6385,.8715,.9625,.9855,.9965,1])

When I run the example, a problem occurs. I don't know what to do then. Please give me some guidance. Thank you very much.

Hi again,
 I finish installing yade-0.60.3, but there is a problem when I run the example.

jack@kinn:~/YADE603$ python yade-0.60.3 mill.py
python: can't open file 'yade-0.60.3': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Thank you again.

Hi Jack,

you should use:

yade-0.60.3 mill.py

The file you want to run e.g. mill.py must be in the current directory. Check
with command ls.

Hi Klaus,
 Do you mean that I copy the examples to the directory " YADE603/bin" and then run the example in the directory with the command " yade-0.60.3 mill.py"? If so , the command can't be found.

jack@kinn:~/YADE603/bin$ ls
bulldozer.py funnel.py psd.py tunnel-pack.py
bulldozerVTK.py lixi.py rotating-cylinder.py yade-0.60.3
Cylinder.py mill.py rotatingCylinder.py yade-0.60.3-batch

jack@kinn:~/YADE603/bin$ yade-0.60.3 mill.py
yade-0.60.3：command not found

In addition, I can run the example in my way using yade-0.50, but it does not work in yade-0.60.3.

Thank you

Hi Jack,

in the same directory try:

./yade-0.60.3 mill.py

This should solve the problem.

Hi
 The examples indeed could be run by the command "./yade-0.50 mill.py". It works in yade-0.50 but not in yade-0.60.3.

jack@kinn:~/YADE60/bin$ ./yade-0.60.3 mill.py
WARNING: non-debug build not available, running with --debug instead (try --rebuild to get the non-debug build).
Welcome to Yade 0.60.3
Traceback (most recent call last):

    import yade

I think I have installed yade-0.60.3 successfully.

Thank you again

Hello,

If I remember well, it's because of :
"WARNING: non-debug build not available, running with --debug instead (try --rebuild to get the non-debug build)."

I think you have to re-try with ./yade-0.60.3 --debug mill.py

Thank you, jduriez, it works.

Thanks Chareyre, that solved my question.
