Robert Caulk proposed the following answer:
Hello,

It sounds like you are interested in using the TriaxialStressController.
Within this engine, you can indicate whether you want to achieve
confining stress by internal compaction (radius expansion) or by moving
the walls. If you would like to see this method in action and improve
your programming skills, there is a wonderful tutorial located in your
Yade examples folder:

/examples/triax-tutorial

If you have not installed Yade, you can look at the code here:

As for PFC, you may want to seek assistance elsewhere since it is an
entitely different software package.
