  2. Packing density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_density

    The optimal packing density or packing constant associated with a supply collection is the supremum of upper densities obtained by packings that are subcollections of the supply collection. If the supply collection consists of convex bodies of bounded diameter, there exists a packing whose packing density is equal to the packing constant, and ...

  3. Probability density function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability_density_function

    In probability theory, a probability density function (PDF), density function, or density of an absolutely continuous random variable, is a function whose value at any given sample (or point) in the sample space (the set of possible values taken by the random variable) can be interpreted as providing a relative likelihood that the value of the ...

  4. Circle packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing

    A compact binary circle packing with the most similarly sized circles possible. [7] It is also the densest possible packing of discs with this size ratio (ratio of 0.6375559772 with packing fraction (area density) of 0.910683). [8] There are also a range of problems which permit the sizes of the circles to be non-uniform.

  5. Pair distribution function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pair_distribution_function

    The pair distribution function describes the distribution of distances between pairs of particles contained within a given volume. [1] Mathematically, if a and b are two particles, the pair distribution function of b with respect to a, denoted by () is the probability of finding the particle b at distance from a, with a taken as the origin of coordinates.

  6. Sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    The strictly jammed (mechanically stable even as a finite system) regular sphere packing with the lowest known density is a diluted ("tunneled") fcc crystal with a density of only π √ 2 /9 ≈ 0.49365. [6] The loosest known regular jammed packing has a density of approximately 0.0555. [7]

  7. Packing problems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

    Packing identical rectangles in a rectangle: The problem of packing multiple instances of a single rectangle of size (l,w), allowing for 90° rotation, in a bigger rectangle of size (L,W) has some applications such as loading of boxes on pallets and, specifically, woodpulp stowage. For example, it is possible to pack 147 rectangles of size (137 ...

  9. Circle packing in a square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_packing_in_a_square

    Circle packing in a square is a packing problem in recreational mathematics, where the aim is to pack n unit circles into the smallest possible square. Equivalently, the problem is to arrange n points in a unit square aiming to get the greatest minimal separation, d n , between points. [ 1 ]
