Ali,
I'm the main developer of the triaxial engine you are using, but unfortunately 
this "fixedPorosity" feature has been added by somebody else and I never really 
understood what it was supposed to do. I'm considering removing it. Don't use 
it.

Try using TriaxialStressController or ThreeDTriaxEngine, it will be simpler to  
understand their behaviour (see triaxial tutorial in scripts/) than that of 
CompressionEngine.
The purpose of these engines is to control precisely stress and strain rate. 
Actually, if what you want is just to impose an arbitrary volume to a sphere 
packing, why not just moving boundaries to a fixed position? You don't need any 
engine for this.
