Saving the data of a clump in txt or any other format

Asked by Poornachandra Vaddy on 2021-03-16

Hey there!

I would like to save the data of a clump in a txt format file and use it in further simulations. Any suggestions on how I can do it?

Thanks in advance...
Poornachandra.

Hi,

Have you read https://yade-dem.org/doc/tutorial-data-mining.html yet ? Since YADE interface is a Python interface, Python documentation about text Input/Output (I/O) procedures would also help.

Hello,

for saving data, export module [1] is the first place to look.
Similarly, using saved data or importing data, ymport module [2] is the first place to look.
For clumps, export.textClump [3] and ymport.textClump [4] seems as the tool you are looking for.

cheers
Jan
