Rotate cylinder

Asked by Mithushan Soundaranathan

Hi,

How can I rotate this half cylinder 90 degrees in y-axis:

#Cylinderpunch
cyl1 =geom.facetCylinder((0,-0.15,0),8*Diameter,0.07,Quaternion((0,0,1),.5*pi),24,wallMask=4)
cyl1 = [f for f in cyl1 if f.state.pos[0] < 0] # "half-cylinder"
cyl1=O.bodies.append(cyl1)

for j in cyl1:
     body= O.bodies[j]
     body.state.rot=(0,90,0)

I tried this, but it did not move my cylinder.

Here is my code:

Hello,

> Here is my code:

most of the code is irrelevant to the problem.
Please try to create a MWE [1], M = minimal (unnecessary code removed, focusing on the problem)
Your "initial" code would be just fine (with "Diamater" variable defined), showing the entire problem ("I intended to rotate these bodies, but they are not rotated")
The rest just scares/discourages potential helpers :-)

state.rot is a method to get relative rotation from initial rotation [1], something like state.displ().
With your code, you just overwritten the method to the (0,90,0) tuple, try this:
###
Diameter = 0.0079 #79 micrometer
cyl1 =geom.facetCylinder((0,-0.15,0),8*Diameter,0.07,Quaternion((0,0,1),.5*pi),24,wallMask=4)
cyl1 = [f for f in cyl1 if f.state.pos[0] < 0] # "half-cylinder"
cyl1=O.bodies.append(cyl1)

for j in cyl1:
    body= O.bodies[j]
    print(body.state.rot) # <bound method State.rot ...
    body.state.rot=(0,90,0)
    print(body.state.rot) # (0,90,0)
###

Just a note, in Yade the angles are rarely (if at all) in degrees..

To rotate a body, you have to modify state.ori. If the center of rotation is not state.pos, you have to modify state.pos as well:
###
Diameter = 0.0079 #79 micrometer
cyl1 =geom.facetCylinder((0,-0.15,0),8*Diameter,0.07,Quaternion((0,0,1),.5*pi),24,wallMask=4)
cyl1 = [f for f in cyl1 if f.state.pos[0] < 0] # "half-cylinder"
cyl1=O.bodies.append(cyl1)

rot = Quaternion((0,0,1),.5*pi) # 90 degrees around z axis
center = Vector3(0,0,0) # center of rotation

for j in cyl1:
    body= O.bodies[j]
    # change rotation
    body.state.ori *= rot
    # shift the body
    p = body.state.pos - center # relative vector from center to pos
    p = rot * p # rotated relative vector
    body.state.pos = center + p # new pos
###

cheers

Depending on your needs (change the default initial orientation by a 90 degrees rotation, or impose a gradual rotation up to 90 degrees), it is a good YADE habit (for the 2nd case) to go through angular velocities, resp. velocities, and not update directly orientation, resp. position.
See https://yade-dem.org/doc/user.html#imposed-velocity (the same may apply for angular velocities and orientation)

Thanks Jan Stránský, that solved my question.
