Question #707368 on Yade changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/707368
Status: Open => Answered Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: Hello, the problem is visualization of the infinite object :-) and its automation (what should be the shape? what size? ...?). For every situation the proper visualization may be different. As a workaround, you can export wall data to a CSV file, load it in paraview, "filter" it a bit and get whatever you want. For example circles: ### yade scriptw1,w2,w3 = [wall((0,0,0),axis=i) for i in (0,1,2)] walls = [w1,w2,w3] O.bodies.append(walls) w1.state.vel = (1,0,0) w2.state.vel = (0,2,0) w3.state.vel = (0,0,3) O.engines = [ PyRunner(iterPeriod=1,initRun=True,command="exportWalls()"), NewtonIntegrator(), ] def exportWalls(): with open(f"wall-{O.iter:06d}.csv","w") as f: f.write("x,y,z,nx,ny,nz\n") for w in walls: x,y,z = w.state.pos n = [0,0,0] n[w.shape.axis] = 1 nx,ny,nz = n f.write(f"{x},{y},{z},{nx},{ny},{nz}\n") O.dt = 1 O.run(5,True) ### And then in Paraview for example: - open the wall-....csv files, use CSV Reader if you have to choose, Apply - Filters -> Table To Points, select x,y,z as X, Y, Z columns, Apply - Calculator (make nz,ny,nz to one vector): - Result: normal - formula: iHat*nx+jHat*ny+kHat*nz - Apply - Glyph -> Box: - Z Length: 0 - Scale Factor: what you need, e.g. 5 - Glyph Mode: All Points - Apply Cheers Jan -- You received this question notification because your team yade-users is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : yade-users@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
