Hi everyone,

I would like to know how could i move the discrete elements in the inp file applying one condition? For example:

If the workpiece has a sensor and detect force of contact from 10N with the discrete element, the shape that contain the discrete elements I wish it gets move (whatever direction), but if the force is lower than 10N, the discrete element I wish does not get move.

or i have necessarely to create new plugin?

If it is the last option what file in the libdem i can use? Is it discreteelement.hpp? or what do you recommend?

Thanks
