Question #280717 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/280717

Description changed to:
I am trying to pack a normal distribution of particles into a
rectangular prism. The porosity should be about 0.45, but I don't know
how many particles there should be. I have tried using the code below,
but I just get smaller particles instead of denser packing.

sp=pack.SpherePack()
sp.makeCloud(minCorner=Vector3(0.,0.,0.),maxCorner=Vector3(5,5,0.6),num=10000,porosity=0.45,psdSizes=[0.01,0.08,0.15],psdCumm=[0,0.5,1])
sp.toSimulation()

I also tried to use randomDensePack(), but I couldn't make a normal
distribution. Is there a different method I should be using?
