Christian Jakob proposed the following answer:
Hi,

For inertia/mass/volume calculation, use

O.bodies.replaceByClumps(templates,[1.0], discretization=5)

where discretization is explained here:

https://yade-
dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html#yade.wrapper.BodyContainer.clump

So for more accurate inertia/mass/volume calculation increase
discretization. But however increasing it will lead to higher
initialization time for clumps. Fortunately it is parallelized, so you
can use -j option to reduce calc. time on creation of clumps ;)

Please give us the results for mass for discretization=5, 10 and 15.
Thanks.

Regards,

Christian
