Hello,

It is always useful to attache / include minimal working example
reproducing your problem, it helps us a lot to solve it :-)

Currently there is nothing like "surface" in Yade, only list of facets..

in your specific case, I would say the problem is in RotationEngine
arguments. Did you use rotateAroundZero=True and zeroPoint parameters? see
