Hi all,

I am currently modeling the sedimentation of a sphere. I have formulated the following global equation for its acceleration. However, the term intop1(spf.T_stressz) always remains 0. Does anyone know why and how I can incorporate the drag force into the model?

Global Equation: (intop1(-spf.T_stressz)-massg_const+volumeg_const*density_water)/mass-vst

Thank you!
