Mario Reyes confirmed that the question is solved:
Thanks so much. I am still a beginner in Yade, and there are some things
that are really easy and I often don't see them, sorry for some of the
questions. I set the boundary conditions in every side of my box,
applied gravity and let it settled. I set a tolerance for the unbalanced
force and then removed some bodies to create my slope.

I still have a little problem with some spheres that fall through the
wall, but according to a question in the list, it's probably due to the
low rigidity of my material, so I have to make the time step smaller
(which it will increase the time of simulation). Anyway, what I want to
do now is make the slope collapse. According what I have read I have to
loop over the interactions, something like this:

for i in O.interactions: i.phys.shearForce=(0,0,0)

I am not sure if this is the right approach, but the shearForce is still
updated. I have tried and I haven't seen any change. I am still trying
to figure out how to decrease the bonds strengths in order to make the
slope collapse. Could you help me giving me an idea of what parameter
change?

Thanks in advance,

Mario
