How avoid object bouncing and vibration?
Hi
I'm loading a random population of several very small objects, which is collision element is parameterized as a box. But when they fall in the ground, they start vibrating for a long period of time. The objects have a approx size of 22.3x8.6x15.9 mm and a mass of 0.00158 kg.
The behaviour I want to model is for them to stop as soon as posible when they touch the ground, as there not made of a bouncing material but rigid material.
As i would like a fast simulation, Is there a way to do that without decreasing the maxstepsize?. Are there any model parameters should I change to avoid the desired behaviour?
Best Regards

hello, you could try to increase the object mass, and can try tuning the parameters in collision->contacts->ode in the sdf

Thank you clément, Which parameters exactly do you advise me to change?

hello, in collision->surface->contact->ode, you can try increasing min_depth and decreasing max_vel. Find here a tutorial on different simulation parameter that may be useful to fix your issue: link
