Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
Thanks, much more understandable.

SpherePack.relDensity, as the docs suggests,  is a "getter" - it returns computed value of relative density of the packing
So yes, it can be good for checking the value.

Since you are using PeriTriaxController, you can use it as strain-
controlled (not stress controlled) compression to easily set target
dimensions (knowing total volume of spheres) to get the desired relative
density / porosity / void ratio ...

cheers
Jan
