Denser-than-crystalline disordered polydisperse ellipse packings
Kinsley G. Trlak, Dewni S. de Silva, Salvatore Torquato +1
By employing SWAP Monte Carlo moves during slow Lubachevsky-Stillinger-like particle growth, we generate well-thermalized disordered jammed ellipse packings for a wide range of par…
