Hard-Sphere Close-Packing Models: Possible Applications for Developing Promising Ceramic and Refractory Materials (Review)

摘要

The current status of theoretical research on close-packed systems of hard spheres is reviewed. The basic models of regular and random close-packings of hard spheres are described. Examples are presented of the application of modeling of the close packing of hard spheres for solving applied problems in the development of promising materials made from ceramics, including refractories.
