Random-close packing limits for monodisperse and polydisperse hard spheres.
We investigate how the densities of inherent structures, which we refer to as the closest jammed configurations, are distributed for packings of 10(4) frictionless hard spheres. A computational algorithm is introduced to generate closest jammed configurations and determine corresponding densities. Closest jamming densities for monodisperse packings generated with high compression rates using Lu...
متن کاملClose to close packing ∗
For various lattice gas models with nearest neighbour exclusion (and, in one case, second-nearest neighbour exclusion as well), we obtain lower bounds on m, the average number of particles on the non-excluded lattice sites closest ∗We dedicate this work to the memory of Ann Stell, beloved friend of OP and beloved wife of GS.
متن کاملOptimal packing of polydisperse hard-sphere fluids
We consider the effect of intermolecular interactions on the optimal size-distribution of N hard spheres that occupy a fixed total volume. When we minimize the free-energy of this system, within the Percus–Yevick approximation, we find that no solution exists beyond a quite low threshold (h'0.260). Monte Carlo simulations reveal that beyond this density, the size-distribution becomes bimodal. S...
متن کاملUniversality of Random Close Packing ?
In 1611 Kepler proposed that the densest packing of spheres could be achieved by stacking close-packed planes of spheres. In such a packing, the spheres occupy π/ √ 18 ≈74.05% of space. The Kepler conjecture was (almost certainly) proved in 1998 by Thomas Hales. When we pour a large number of equal-sized spheres in a container and shake them down, we do not obtain the Kepler packing. Rather a d...
متن کاملNanostructure and nanomechanics of cement: polydisperse colloidal packing.
Cement setting and cohesion are governed by the precipitation and growth of calcium-silicate-hydrate, through a complex evolution of microstructure. A colloidal model to describe nucleation, packing, and rigidity of calcium-silicate-hydrate aggregates is proposed. Polydispersity and particle size dependent cohesion strength combine to produce a spectrum of packing fractions and of corresponding...
