Spring Element

Mr.Happy
Hi,
I have used the following line of code in my input. I wanted to know how the damping factor is used in the formulation of the spring element.

<PlugIn Id="_ConvertElementPairToSpring" Set="Tie" Stiffness="10e8" DampingFactor="0.5" MaxElongation="1%"/>

Thanks!

Hello, please go into the "granoo/tags/2.0/Lib/GranOO/libDEM/Bond/Spring.cpp" source file and read the "Process()" method.
