Thank you,

Hi François,
There is an infinite number of spring-dashpot models. Could you be more specific?

According to your private email, you want Kelvin–Voigt model.
It should be here:
https://yade-dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.Law2_ScGeom_ViscElPhys_Basic

I'm not personally vouching for it. Let us know if it gives satisfying results, it will help filling this: https://www.yade-dem.org/wiki/ConstitutiveLaws

Bruno,

Can you confirm me that the tangential component of this force law is taken as the minimum
 between a term corresponding to tangential elasticity (controlled by ks) and a term corresponding
 to the Coulomb law of dynamic friction for oblique sliding impacts (see for instance J.Schafer, S.Dippel and D.E.Wolf,
J. Phys. I, 6 (1996) 5-20).
Do you have examples where this law that you mentioned has been used

As said above, I can't confirm anything François (note that the law is red on the wiki page).
You should check the code if something is not explained in the documentation.

Can you help with this problem?

Provide an answer of your own, or ask Rioual for more information if necessary.
