Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hi Mario,

For all questions related to Yade, I guess there is no more appropriate
forum, so welcome !

- About "the engines for the force-displacement and motion laws", there is nothing to "implement", you may enjoy what exists already. It should be explained here:
https://yade-dem.org/doc/user.html#base-engines
There is one "NewtonIntegrator" engine that takes care of motion laws, see [1].
For force-displacement laws, all operations takes place in this "InteractionLoop", it has be defined carefully, see [2] and examples to understand how it works.

- Regarding slope stability analysis, DEM analysis (as performed with
Yade) do not have many things in common with limit equilibrium
analysis.. The questions (hence, the answers) addressed by these two
methods are rather different..
