Error while sphere packing in geometry

Asked by Swapnil

Hi friends :) I have been trying to work with Yade and executing few basic commands as given on the Yade website.

I tried the following:

pred=pack.inHyperboloid(centerBottom=(0,0,-.1),centerTop=(0,0,.1),radius=.05,skirt=.03)
spheres=pack.randomDensePack(pred,spheresInCell=2000,radius=3.5e-3)

But instead of receiving the packed geometry in the simulation, the terminal displays the following error:

"No suitable packing in database found, running PERIODIC compression"

Any ideas what could be going wrong here?

Thanks for reading :)

Hello,

> No suitable packing in database found, running PERIODIC compression

it is no error, just info message

To get spheres to simulation, do
O.bodies.append(spheres)

cheers
