    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    The upper bound for the density of a strictly jammed sphere packing with any set of radii is 1 – an example of such a packing of spheres is the Apollonian sphere packing. The lower bound for such a sphere packing is 0 – an example is the Dionysian sphere packing. [27]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_cube

    In geometry, sphere packing in a cube is a three-dimensional sphere packing problem with the objective of packing spheres inside a cube. It is the three-dimensional equivalent of the circle packing in a square problem in two dimensions. The problem consists of determining the optimal packing of a given number of spheres inside the cube.

    [1] [2] Highest density is known only for 1, 2, 3, 8, and 24 dimensions. [3] Many crystal structures are based on a close-packing of a single kind of atom, or a close-packing of large ions with smaller ions filling the spaces between them. The cubic and hexagonal arrangements are very close to one another in energy, and it may be difficult to ...

  5. Finite sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_sphere_packing

    The higher the packing density, the less empty space there is in the packing and thus the smaller the volume of the hull (in comparison to other packings with the same number and size of spheres). To pack the spheres efficiently, it might be asked which packing has the highest possible density.

  6. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    The hexagonal packing of circles on a 2-dimensional Euclidean plane. These problems are mathematically distinct from the ideas in the circle packing theorem.The related circle packing problem deals with packing circles, possibly of different sizes, on a surface, for instance the plane or a sphere.

  7. Random close pack - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_close_pack

    Random close packing (RCP) of spheres is an empirical parameter used to characterize the maximum volume fraction of solid objects obtained when they are packed randomly. For example, when a solid container is filled with grain, shaking the container will reduce the volume taken up by the objects, thus allowing more grain to be added to the container.
