      Hey,

      I'm calculating a quantity called the Tabor number, which I need for my simulation setup. For this I would need particle overlap measurement. I went through the technical manual but I only see the force vs overlap plot. 

      Is there a way to calculate overlap between particles and material?

      Thanks,
      Kiran

      Hello Kiran,

       

      You might enable the Collect Contacts Data checkbox from the Contacts entity and access this info through the Overlap grid function from the Contacts | Properties tab. 

      It shows the overlap length for each particle.

       

      best regards,

      Lucas
