Robert Caulk posted a new comment: Hey Ibraheem, Ok, so in comparison to [1] what have you changed? (this is typically the first thing that should be reported when asking questions , please review point 2 of [2]). I see the youngs modulus is 5 orders of magnitude higher in your script compared to [1]. However, you hold the same confining pressure - so I am unsurprised that the equilibrium is found at a higher porosity. If you desire a lower porosity, you need to decrease the youngs modulus or increase your confining pressure. This goes back to my original post - I see no difference scaling heat porosity from DEM porosity of 0.44 to a "true" porosity of 0.015 or DEM 0.25 to "true" 0.015. In both cases, you are discretizing space (i.e. the DEM particles do not directly represent grains) which means packing porosity is just a numerical by product.
