Hi,

I think HydroforceEngine should be defined for your Yade version. If you want 
to be sure it is defined, try to type 
help(HydroForceEngine) in Yade. If it prints something it is defined. Otherwise 
use the latest yadedaily and it will be ok. 

However, I don't know what you want to simulate, but with your
formulation it will not work. You need to precise all the different
arguments of the engine (see the documentation https://yade-
dem.org/doc/yade.wrapper.html?highlight=hydroforceengine#yade.wrapper.HydroForceEngine
).

I designed this function to couple Yade with a 1D fluid resolution (v_x^f(z)) 
so that it mights look a bit particular at some points. It therefore requires 
to precise the fluid profile (vxFluid) and the position (zref) of the regular 
fluid mesh described by deltaZ and nCell. There is also a Discrete Random Walk 
fluctuation model included to account for the fluid velocity fluctuations, 
which is based on the Reynolds stress tensor (which comes from the fluid 
resolution). You can get rid of the fluctuation model by writing  
HydroForceEngine(vFluctX = numpy.zeros(len(O.bodies)), vFluctZ = 
numpy.zeros(len(O.bodies))) when declaring the engine.
Don't hesitate if you have more questions. 

Raphaël
