Particle size distribution curve after particle breaking

Asked by yangjunjie

Hi ,

This is my last question about particle crushing https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/675477.

I use fragment replace method to simulate particle breaking (the new generation of smaller particles that replace the disappearing broken particle), but I must to observe the evolving of particle size distribution and changing between initial PSD curve and ultimate one.
The x-axis of particle size distribution curve is particle size(Logarithmic coordinates) and y-axis is mass percentage less than a certain particle size.
So how can I plot this curve ?

Thanks

Hello,

I guess you want something like this:

def getRadiusArray():
    radii=[]
    for b in O.bodies:
 if isinstance(b.shape,Sphere):
         radii.append(b.shape.radius)

getRadiusArray()
values, base = np.histogram(data, bins=40)
cumulative = np.array(np.cumsum(values),dtype=float)
perc = cumulative/max(cumulative)*100
plt.semilogx(base[:-1], cumulative, c='blue')

Cheers,

Robert

**noticed it was missing some stuff**

def getRadiusArray():
....

    return radii

radii = getRadiusArray()
values,base=np.histogram(radii,bins=40)

Hi Robert:

Thank you for your reply !! But I meet some problems:

This is a good python teaching moment. Good luck ;-)

Yes, please, yangjunjie, don't re-write the history of discussions.
I'm also curious why the first part of the question was removed: "This is my last question about particle crushing".
It seems last question on crushing ends up as first question on the additivity of python codes. ;)

Please think twice _before_ posting, not after posting.

Turns out, Yade might have a nice built in function for this[1]. I haven't used it myself, but it could be worth trying.
