Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hello,
For generating samples with a controlled porosity, have a look at [1],
the "Reaching a specified porosity" section. The porosity values that
you will be able to attain may also depend on your particle size
distribution and of the fact that you're using spherical shapes...
As for randomDensePack, the doc meant the packing returned by randomDensePack
is obtained through a hidden TriaxialTest simulation (the isotropic compression
part of it, actually).
But this packing is free to use by the user for any kind of simulation, not
only TriaxialTest simulations (some understanding of the stress state of that
packing --- after the hidden TriaxialTest simulation --- would be useful,
though).
In all cases, the fact remains randomDensePack is kind of a (open-source
! see [2]) black box, which may be useful or not depending on your
needs/understanding of that function.
