    Status: Open => Answered

Jérôme Duriez proposed the following answer:
Which shape would you like to describe in the end ? A cylinder or a
superellipsoid, or sthg else ?

For a cylinder, 
O.bodies.append(levelSetBody('disk',radius=1))
should do the trick, providing you a disk in (x,y) space (while being obviously 
z-invariant)

For a superllipsoid
O.bodies.append(levelSetBody('superellipsoid',extents = (1,2,3),epsilons = 
(0.5,1.5)))
will work.

In both cases, you do not need to use phiIniPy (which is to reserve for
cases not already handled by the shape attribute of levelSetBody)

PS: in the levelSetBody function, spacing and nSurfNodes are very
important parameters of LS shape description in YADE and are omitted in
the above only for simplicty, assuming default values are fine
