Structure Generation and Analysis from the Loosest to the Densest Random Packings

We explore sets of jammed packings of frictional spheres and ellipsoids generated using the Discrete Element Method. A novel preparation method is presented and analysed, where the internal structure of the system is modified by iteratively removing grains to generate a continuous variation in packi...
