hi, 
please am having some difficulties in calculating the volume of the spheres imediately after deposition.
the number of spheres i added before the deposition started is 1050 and after the deposition, when the sample is stabilized, the unwanted spheres were leveled off.
(1) how can the exert volume of the spheres in the sample after deposition be calculated.
(2)what command can be used to calculate the porosity of the sample.

O.bodies.append(geom.facetBox((0.035,0.035,0.035),(0.035,0.035,0.035),wallMask=15, dynamic=1))
O.bodies.append(utils.geom.facetBox((0.035,0.035,0.035),(0.035,0.035,0.035),wallMask=16, material = BoundaryMat,dynamic=0))#bottom of the sample, which is not allowed to move. because of that dynamic=0 [O means "False"]
O.bodies.append(utils.geom.facetBox((0.035,0.035,0.105),(0.035,0.035,0.035),wallMask=15))#!!!! in order to control the particles!!! after the end of the stabilization, we will remove it

psdSizes,psdCumm=[0.00525,0.00603,0.0105,0.01206,0.02099],[0,0.1,0.5,0.6,1.0] #d50=10.5mm, cu=2

mincorner,maxcorner=Vector3(0.001,0.001,0.001),Vector3(0.07,0.07,0.1)  #min and max coordinates of the wall

sp=pack.SpherePack()   #burda pack modulunun Spherepack modulunu cagiriyo, bi altinda da o cagirdinin,piramit gibi lan iste!

sp.makeCloud(mincorner,maxcorner,psdSizes=psdSizes,num=number,psdCumm=psdCumm,distributeMass=1)
 
thanks in advance.
