Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer:
Hi,

• Which contact model was used?

Each script selects one (or many) contact model(s). You can read that
script to know which one was used (look for O.engines=...)

• Which model did you use to model the deformation of the particles?

The contact model.

• Is it possible to change the materials ( example changes density,
size, poisson ratio, young modulus etc)?

Yes.

• Can I modify the example to add a desired porosity in the model, so
the compaction stops when it reach desired porosity?

Yes. Most examples already do that.

• Is it possible to initially pack the particles into a tablet shape
(cylinder)?

You can import a meshed geometry, so yes, cylindrical container is
straightforward if it is rigid. If you want different boundary
conditions ( e.g. imposed pressure on the walls) it is more involved.

I hope it helps.

Bruno
