triaxial test based PSD
Hi there!
I tried to modified the trixial script bsed on PSD but I think something wrong because I cannot run my model.
Here is my script:
from yade import pack

### DEFINING VARIABLES AND MATERIALS ###
#######
# The following 5 lines will be used later for batch execution
nRead=readParam
num_psd_data = 1000,# number of spheres
compFricDegree = 30, # contact friction during the confining phase
key='_
unknownOk=True
)
from yade.params import table
# Define of psd data for testing
psd_data = [[0.3600,
num_psd_
key=table.key
targetPorosity = 0.43 #the porosity we want for the packing
compFricDegree = table.compFricD
finalFricDegree = 30 # contact friction during the deviatoric loading
rate=-0.02 # loading rate (strain rate)
damp=0.2 # damping coefficient
stabilityThresh
young=5e6 # contact stiffness
mn,mx=Vector3(
## create materials for spheres and plates
psd_data = O.materials.
O.materials.
## create walls around the packing
walls=aabbWalls
wallIds=
## use a SpherePack object to generate a random loose particles packing
sp=pack.psd_data()
clumps=False #turn this true for the same example with clumps
if clumps:
## approximate mean rad of the futur dense packing for latter use
volume = (mx[0]-
mean_rad = pow(0.09*
## define a unique clump type (we could have many, see clumpCloud documentation)
c1=pack.
## generate positions and input them in the simulation
sp.makeClumpCl
sp.toSimulatio
O.bodies.
else:
sp.makeCloud(
O.bodies.
#or alternatively (higher level function doing exactly the same):
#sp.toSimulati

### DEFINING ENGINES ###

triax=TriaxialS
## TriaxialStressC
## this control of boundary conditions was used for instance in http://
maxMultiplier=
finalMaxMultip
thickness = 0,
## switch stress/strain control using a bitmask. What is a bitmask, huh?!
## Say x=1 if stess is controlled on x, else x=0. Same for for y and z, which are 1 or 0.
## Then an integer uniquely defining the combination of all these tests is: mask = x*1 + y*2 + z*4
## to put it differently, the mask is the integer whose binary representation is xyz, i.e.
## "100" (1) means "x", "110" (3) means "x and y", "111" (7) means "x and y and z", etc.

## UNCOMMENT THE FOLLOWING SECTIONS ONE BY ONE
## DEPENDING ON YOUR EDITOR, IT COULD BE DONE
## BY SELECTING THE CODE BLOCKS BETWEEN THE SUBTITLES
## AND PRESSING CTRL+SHIFT+D
#######
### APPLYING CONFINING PRESSURE ###
#######
#the value of (isotropic) confining stress defines the target stress to be applied in all three directions
triax.goal1=
#while 1:
#O.run(1000, True)
##the global unbalanced force on dynamic bodies, thus excluding boundaries, which are not at equilibrium
#unb=
#print 'unbalanced force:',unb,' mean stress: ',triax.meanStress
#if unb<stabilityTh
#break
#O.save(
#print "### Isotropic state saved ###"
#######
### REACHING A SPECIFIED POROSITY PRECISELY ###
#######
### We will reach a prescribed value of porosity with the REFD algorithm
### (see http://
### http://
#import sys #this is only for the flush() below
#while triax.porosity>
## we decrease friction value and apply it to all the bodies and contacts
#compFricDegree = 0.95*compFricDegree
#setContactFri
#print "\r Friction: ",compFricDegree," porosity:
#sys.stdout.
## while we run steps, triax will tend to grow particles as the packing
## keeps shrinking as a consequence of decreasing friction. Consequently
## porosity will decrease
#O.run(500,1)
#O.save(
#print "### Compacted state saved ###"
#######
### DEVIATORIC LOADING ###
#######
##We move to deviatoric loading, let us turn internal compaction off to keep particles sizes constant
#triax.
## Change contact friction (remember that decreasing it would generate instantaneous instabilities)
#setContactFric
##set stress control on x and z, we will impose strain rate on y
#triax.stressMask = 5
##now goal2 is the target strain rate
#triax.goal2=rate
## we define the lateral stresses during the test, here the same 10kPa as for the initial confinement.
#triax.goal1=-10000
#triax.goal3=-10000
##we can change damping here. What is the effect in your opinion?
#newton.damping=0.1
##Save temporary state in live memory. This state will be reloaded from the interface with the "reload" button.
#O.saveTmp()
#######
### Example of how to record and plot data ###
#######
#from yade import plot
### a function saving variables
#def history():
#plot.
#
#
#
#i=O.iter)
#if 1:
## include a periodic engine calling that function in the simulation loop
#O.engines=
##O.engines.
#else:
## With the line above, we are recording some variables twice. We could in fact replace the previous
## TriaxialRecorder
## by our periodic engine. Uncomment the following line:
#O.engines[
#O.run(100,True)
### declare what is to plot. "None" is for separating y and y2 axis
#plot.plots=
### the traditional triaxial curves would be more like this:
##plot.
## display on the screen (doesn't work on VMware image it seems)
#plot.plot()
##### PLAY THE SIMULATION HERE WITH "PLAY" BUTTON OR WITH THE COMMAND O.run(N) #####
## In that case we can still save the data to a text file at the the end of the simulation, with:
#plot.saveDataT
##or even generate a script for gnuplot. Open another terminal and type "gnuplot plotScriptKEY.
#plot.saveGnupl
