I am working on modeling of a particulate composite using a Representative Volume Element (RVE) containing disk shaped random particles in abaqus python script. I want to add an algorithm in python script detecting intersection of any two different particles so I'll be able to avoid it. Does any one have an idea of how to write the algorithm? Thanks all

  • you might add the computational geometry keyword. Is this 3d? Are the disks 2d? – agentp Jun 10 '16 at 21:55
  • Hi agentp. The disks have thickness so accounted as 3d. By computational geometry keyword, do you mean python modules such as shapely?or something else? – Behzad hashemi soudmand Jun 12 '16 at 05:53
  • i mean the keywords at the bottom of your question. A disk with thickness is called a cylinder, I imagine google searching intersecting cylinders would be useful. – agentp Jun 12 '16 at 13:17
