Model of a crowd on concert venue or how to distribute random points according to the 2D window distribution

Hello
Could you please help me with the following issue: I need to "simulate" the crowd in a concert venue by the set of cylinders ( for example with height of 1.7 m and radius of 0.25 m with different concentration (number of cylinders per m^2) ).
In fact the task is to find the coordinates (x, y) of these cylinders.
In real case concentration of people decreases to the edges of the venue and to its back part. For example near the stage we have 2 pers/m^2 and it decreases to 0 (no people) to the edges of the venue and to its back part. Attached picture is an example what I need to do, but there is a constant concentration.
Using a 2D window, I modeled a change in concentration on the venue (I attach a picture and a mat file)
contourf(x, y, Nu, 'ShowText','on')
shading interp
xlabel('X (Length), m')
ylabel('Y (Width), m')
title('People concentration variation through the venue')
colorbar
Now, according to this distribution, I need to find the coordinates of the points (in fact coordinates of the cylinders.) ... and these points should be randomly placed within a given concentration, I mean not in line as an array ... that is, in fact, I need to simulate more or less real placement of crowd.
To understand better I need to do something like this https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/374345-how-to-distribute-random-points-according-to-the-epanechnikov-distribution-values but taking into account than cylinders have a radius of 0.25 m.
I will be very grateful! Because I can not figure out how to do it.
Thank you! If it's not clear, don't hesitate to ask me, because I really hope for your help!

Discard the choice of a random point if the minimum distance to the points already generated is smaller than 0.5.

Torsten's rejection might bias the distribution.
One of the better approach is to repell the points when they are close to each other. The constraints are not always meet but it's very reasonable overall.
You can run Torsten's rejection afterward if needed. Otherwise consider the overlapping circles as mom carrying her baby :-).
L = 20; % <-- Choose length of square sides
x0 = L/2; y0 = L/2; % <-- Choose center of square
n = 500; % <-- Choose number of points
% Generate 2D epanechnikov-distribution
X = [x0,y0] + (sin(asin(2*rand(n,2)-1)/3))*L;
XYR = [x0,y0]+[[-1;1;1;-1;-1],[-1;-1;1;1;-1]]*L/2;
XB = interp1((0:4)'*L,XYR,linspace(0,4*L,200));
XB(end,:) = [];
nrepulsion = 50;
% Repulsion of seeds to avoid them to be too close to each other
n = size(X,1);
Xmin = [x0-L/2,y0-L/2];
Xmax = [x0+L/2,y0+L/2];
% Point on boundary
XR = x0+[-1,1,1,-1,-1]*L/2;
YR = y0+[-1,-1,1,1,-1]*L/2;
cla;
hold on
plot(XR,YR,'r-');
h = plot(X(:,1),X(:,2),'b.');
axis equal
dmin = 0.5;
d2min = dmin*dmin;
beta = 0.5;
for k = 1:nrepulsion
XALL = [X; XB];
DT = delaunayTriangulation(XALL);
T = DT.ConnectivityList;
containX = ismember(T,1:n);
b = any(containX,2);
TX = T(b,:);
[r,i0] = find(containX(b,:));
i = mod(i0+(-1:1),3)+1;
i = TX(r + (i-1)*size(TX,1));
T = accumarray([i(:,1);i(:,1)],[i(:,2);i(:,3)],[n 1],@(x) {x});
maxd2 = 0;
R = zeros(n,2);
move = false(n,1);
for i=1:n
Ti = T{i};
P = X(i,:) - XALL(Ti,:);
nP2 = sum(P.^2,2);
if any(nP2<2*d2min)
move(i) = true;
move(Ti(Ti<=n)) = true;
end
maxd2 = maxd2 + mean(nP2);
b = Ti > n;
nP2(b) = nP2(b)*5; % reduce repulsion from each point of the border
R(i,:) = sum(P./max((nP2-d2min),1e-3),1);
end
if ~any(move)
break
end
if k==1
v0 = (L*5e-3)/sqrt(maxd2/n);
end
R = R(move,:);
v = v0/sqrt(max(sum(R.^2,2)));
X(move,:) = X(move,:) + v*R;
% Project back if points falling outside the rectangle
X = min(max(X,Xmin),Xmax);
set(h,'XData',X(:,1),'YData',X(:,2));
pause(0.01);
end
theta = linspace(0,2*pi,65);
xc = dmin/2*sin(theta);
yc = dmin/2*cos(theta);
% plot circles f diameter dmin around random points
for i=1:n
plot(X(i,1)+xc,X(i,2)+yc,'k');
end

Hey Bruno
Just wondering, is there a way to modify this code to be able to work in a 3D space?
Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken, each statement of my code could be converted to 3D counter part. You migh adjust some hard code constant for the convergence.
