Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Hi (again),

For .stl-based shapes, you need to go through the *grid* and *distField*
attributes  of levelSetBody().

After having defined appropriate (conforming an inertial frame, in
particular) grid and distance data, by yourself. There is indeed no
example / YADE-based publication at the moment for such an application,
but it should be possible to find on the internet Python tools for this
purpose (= creating a discrete distance field from the .stl).
