Hello,

>As i understood from other questions

Please link to those questions so we can see what you are referring to.

Generally speaking, you can form a pack into any shape you want
(including a horse [1]), so a wedge shape shouldn't be a problem. I
don't know if we have the equivalent of inCylinder [2] for a wedge, but
you can always rely on inGTSsurface [3] (which is what the horse example
uses [4])

>how many particles are necessary for make the simulation validated and
for the calibration?

I should warn that this question is likely unanswerable due to its
unspecific nature.
