Nguyen Hien posted a new comment: You got it, I just give some comments about this. Thanks, I tended to leave rMean=-1 in order to let the psdSizes define the radius of the spheres but the code asked so I enter 0.00575 as a (0.002+0.0095)/2 without hesitation, so I thought the "reducing rMean" method you supposed should work and reasonable. (although when I estimate the rMean by the provided PSD curve, the value is nearly 0.005 too) By the way, as you can see in my code, I already tried the makeCloud method and it seems to be working like a charm.. sp.makeCloud(mn,mx,-1,0,num_spheres,False, 0.95,psdSizes,psdCumm,False,seed=1) or so, I can't verify exactly like the particleSD since the terminal don't show the same think as particleSD (I mean the percentage + number of spheres for each class of radius) but I think it works since the radius in this case is exactly defined under psdSizes value. And a little attention for people who want to play with particleSD, with yade-daily, it will be psdCumm=[1,9,25,50,69,90,95,100], but with makeCloud, it should be psdCumm=[0.01,0.09,0.25,0.50,0.69,0.90,0.95,1.00] The makeCloud is definitely capable of replacing particleSD but I would still want to use it anyway since when I use the code to explain to someone else it makes sense than the makeCloud (yet makeCloud is powerful but particleSD is somehow "cuter"), so I'll also take the 3rd solution.
