Yade

fabricTensor

Asked by Leonard on 2020-09-16

Hi,

I'd like to confirm that when calculate fabricTensor in yade [1], it mentions "for all interactions", so I think this involves not only sphere-sphere interactions, but also sphere-wall interactions. Am I right?

If so, can we get fabricTensor for only sphere-sphere interactions directly in yade? By the way, where can I find the source code for calculating fabricTensor?

Thanks
Leonard

Hi Leonard,

the source code is [1].
As you guessed, all interactions are considered. To compute only fabric tensor of sphere-sphere interactions, you can:
- adjust the C++ source code
- "rewrite" the function to python and add the sphere-sphere condition there

cheers
