Densest Packing of Equal Spheres in Hyperbolic Space
We propose a method to analyze the density of packings of spheres of fixed radius in the hyperbolic space of any dimension m ≥ 2, and prove that for all but countably many radii, optimally dense packings must have low symmetry.
متن کاملPacking non-equal spheres into containers of different shapes
The article reviews a mathematical model of the optimization problem of packing different spheres into a container which can be a cuboid, a sphere, a right circular cylinder, an annular cylinder and a spherical layer. The assumption that sphere radii are variable is exploited. Based on the hypothesis a new way to derive starting point belonging to the feasible region of the problem is offered. ...
متن کاملStructural disorder and anomalous diffusion in random packing of spheres
Nowadays Nuclear Magnetic Resonance diffusion (dNMR) measurements of water molecules in heterogeneous systems have broad applications in material science, biophysics and medicine. Up to now, microstructural rearrangement in media has been experimentally investigated by studying the diffusion coefficient (D(t)) behavior in the tortuosity limit. However, this method is not able to describe struct...
متن کاملDistributions of angles in random packing on spheres
This paper studies the asymptotic behaviors of the pairwise angles among n randomly and uniformly distributed unit vectors in [Formula: see text] as the number of points n → ∞, while the dimension p is either fixed or growing with n. For both settings, we derive the limiting empirical distribution of the random angles and the limiting distributions of the extreme angles. The results reveal inte...
متن کاملRandom close packing of disks and spheres in confined geometries.
Studies of random close packing of spheres have advanced our knowledge about the structure of systems such as liquids, glasses, emulsions, granular media, and amorphous solids. In confined geometries, the structural properties of random-packed systems will change. To understand these changes, we study random close packing in finite-sized confined systems, in both two and three dimensions. Each ...
