Hi Lida,

I agree with jduriez, you should have a closer look at the manual.
But nevertheless here are some hints:
first of all your line "spheres.toSimulation()" is not necessary because 
"O.bodies.append(spheres)" is already adding your spheres to simulation.

Furthermore it is not necessary to add a PyRunner Engine for your purpose of 
calculating a velocity.
Just remove the Pyrunner and add this after you determined the timestep:

#...
velocity=0.0001 #it's a decimal point not a comma

timeNeed=0.006/velocity

iterNeed=timeNeed/O.dt

O.run()
#...

Have fun,
Alex

Hello Lida,

Alexander meant in his comment about O.dt "in seconds per iteratiON".
What is this variable is briefly described here https://www.yade- 
dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.Omega.dt.

Unfortunately, if this does not help you so much (as it is normal for
yade/DEM beginners), I'm afraid you will mandatorily have to give a
serious attention to Yade manual (mainly User's Manual and DEM
Background), to finish your computations.
