A new locally averaged density for sphere packing in R^3 is defined by a proper combination of the local cell (Voronoi cell) and Delaunay decompositions (\S 1.2.2), using only a single layer of surrounding spheres. Local packings attaining…
The densest local packings of N identical nonoverlapping spheres within a radius Rmin(N) of a fixed central sphere of the same size are obtained using a nonlinear programming method operating in conjunction with a stochastic search of…
This article describes the theoretical foundation of and explicit algorithms for a novel approach to morphology and anisotropy analysis of complex spatial structure using tensor-valued Minkowski functionals, the so-called Minkowski tensors.…
We investigate the statistical properties of two dimensional random cellular systems (froths) in term of their shell structure. The froth is analyzed as a system of concentric layers of cells around a given central cell. We derive exact…
Binary mixtures of hard-spheres with different diameters and square-well attraction between different particles are studied by theory and Monte Carlo simulations. In our mesoscopic theory, local fluctuations of the volume fraction of the…
Understanding the structural properties of random packings of jammed colloids requires an unprecedented high-resolution determination of the contact network providing mechanical stability to the packing. Here, we address the determination…
A system of identical disks is confined to a narrow channel, closed off at one end by a stopper and at the other end by a piston. All surfaces are hard and frictionless. A uniform gravitational field is directed parallel to the plane of the…
We create collectively jammed (CJ) packings of 50-50 bidisperse mixtures of smooth disks in 2d using an algorithm in which we successively compress or expand soft particles and minimize the total energy at each step until the particles are…
A model of randomly distributed overlapping spheres of different radii is represented to describe a heterogeneous porous medium. Two-particle correlation function of the relative position of pores of different radii in the medium space was…
We describe the development of a new software tool, called "Pomelo", for the calculation of Set Voronoi diagrams. Voronoi diagrams are a spatial partition of the space around the particles into separate Voronoi cells, e.g. applicable to…
$n$ independent random points drawn from a density $f$ in $R^d$ define a random Voronoi partition. We study the measure of a typical cell of the partition. We prove that the asymptotic distribution of the probability measure of the cell…
By generalizing a geometric argument for frictionless spheres, a model is proposed for the jamming density $\phi_J$ of mechanically stable packings of bidisperse, frictional spheres. The monodisperse, $\mu_s$-dependent jamming density…
The inherent structure landscape for a system of hard spheres confined to a hard cylindrical channel, such that spheres can only contact their first and second neighbours, is studied using an analytical model that extends previous results…
We study the concentration of the norm of a random vector $Y$ uniformly sampled in the centered zero cell of two types of stationary and isotropic random mosaics in $\mathbb{R}^n$ for large dimensions $n$. For a stationary and isotropic…
The structural properties of static, jammed packings of monodisperse spheres in the vicinity of the jamming transition are investigated using large-scale computer simulations. At small wavenumber $k$, we argue that the anomalous behavior in…
In this work, the Minkowski functionals are used as a framework to study how morphology (i.e. the shape of a structure) and topology (i.e. how different structures are connected) influence wall adsorption and capillary condensation under…
Maximum-density dimer packings (maximum matchings) of non-bipartite site-diluted lattices, such as the triangular and Shastry-Sutherland lattices in $d=2$ dimensions and the stacked-triangular and corner-sharing octahedral lattices in…
We develop an analytical method for studying the properties of a non-interacting Wormlike Chain (WLC) in confined geometries. The mean field-like theory replaces the rigid constraints of confinement with average constraints, thus allowing…
In jammed packings, it is usually thought that local structure only plays a significant role in specific regimes. The standard deviation of the relative excess coordination, $\sigma_Z/ Z_\mathrm{c}$, decays like $1/\sqrt{d}$, so that local…
We investigate the influence of morphology and size on the vibrational properties of disordered clusters of colloidal particles with attractive interactions. From measurements of displacement correlations between particles in each cluster,…
