I'm not sure if you can do that with replicate.
However, the first matter to be resolved is: how is bmat related to Distall?
Which rows/columns should go into a single instance of bmat?
In addition you will need to store the output of lsei somewhere.
So it would be seem to be a good idea to make a function that runs a single
instance of lsei given the input parameters Distall, .... so that it can
generate a bmat, run lsei and return the output in a form usable for further
analysis.
When that is available you can start thinking about your simulation.
