Shortcomings of the Bond Orientational Order Parameters for the Analysis of Disordered Particulate Matter
Walter Mickel, Sebastian C. Kapfer, Gerd E. Schröder-Turk +1
Local structure characterization with the bond-orientational order parameters q4, q6, ... introduced by Steinhardt et al. has become a standard tool in condensed matter physics, wi…
Jammed Spheres: Minkowski Tensors Reveal Onset of Local Crystallinity
Sebastian C. Kapfer, Walter Mickel, Klaus Mecke +1
The local structure of disordered jammed packings of monodisperse spheres without friction, generated by the Lubachevsky-Stillinger algorithm, is studied for packing fractions abov…
Minkowski Tensors of Anisotropic Spatial Structure
Gerd E. Schröder-Turk, Walter Mickel, Sebastian C. Kapfer +4
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-va…
