Question #703498 on Yade changed:

Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer:
Hi,
Without knowing anything of your problem. My first guess is that even a symmetric distribution of positions will result in non-symmetric results, provided that the number of particles "N" is large enough. That's due to chaotic behavior.
It may approach symmetry asymptotically if it's averaged on many different realizations, or if N tends to infinity.

If you want to force symmetric results you can simply simulate only one
half of the problem...
