Random sequential packing of cubes / Mathieu Dutour Sikirić, Yoshiaki Itoh.

In this volume very simplified models are introduced to understand the random sequential packing models mathematically. The 1-dimensional model is sometimes called the Parking Problem, which is known by the pioneering works by Flory (1939), Renyi (1958), Dvoretzky and Robbins (1962). To obtain a 1-d...
