Regarding

>>> can we create the real disk shape particles in YADE?
>> my real disk means: flat top and bottom side cylinder, I think it will like a coin with a small thickness like that

>It is currently not possible to use proper cylinders.
>You can approximate it by polyhedrons or clumped particles or potential particles/blocks.

Note also the LevelSet approach :

ls = O.bodies.append(levelSetBody('disk',radius=1))

Thickness will be equal to

O.bodies[ls].shape.lsGrid.spacing
