Using EDEM, particle damping studies were performed by applying motion to a cube containing particles. After the calculation is complete, the energy dissipation data of the system is extracted.The energy dissipation between particles plus the energy dissipation between the particles and the container equals the energy dissipation of the system

Problem: Particle-to-particle normal, tangential, and total collision dissipation are all positive, while particle-to-container are all negative.Why does the above problem occur? How to get the dissipated energy of the whole system?
