Status: Needs information => Open Chien-Cheng Hung gave more information on the question: Hi Jan, Thanks for your quick reply! > - what "sphere layer" is I should say a "granular" layer instead of a sphere layer. It means a layer composed of several spheres. > - if / what you have tried / thought of, why it did not work... Currently, I'm using the function makeCloud [1] to generate a random loose packing of spheres, and then I would apply the isotropic compaction to make a dense packing (I call it a granular layer). But in this function, I can only assign a vector to minCorner and maxCorner so that the length of generated loose packing is always parallel to the X-, Y-, Z-axis. What I would like to do is to generate a random packing in which its length can be oriented to the axis with certain degrees. Is this clear to you? Thanks again!
