Klaus Thoeni proposed the following answer:
Hi Ali,

yade does not really work by clicking buttons ;-) The generator is just for 
some standard configurations. However, you should be able to create your 
desired packing.  

utils.porosity needs the volume, type ?utils.porosity in yade's command line 
or have a look in the documentation where you can also find how to get the 
coordination number (e.g. utils.avgNumInteractions).

https://www.yade-dem.org/doc/yade.utils.html?#yade.utils.porosity

https://www.yade-
dem.org/doc/yade.utils.html?#yade.utils.avgNumInteractions

So you could change the parameters and see if you can get the desired 
porosity.

You probably should also have a look at the documentation of
TriaxialTest.
