Abstract

Monodisperse packing of disks in confined geometries is rarely addressed in the literature. We present some theoretical aspects of the microstructural properties of 2D static packing of disks between two concentric cylinders. In the core of the geometry, the packing is intact, while it is dilated in the vicinity of the walls as a result of the removal of overlapping disks. We have derived the formula for average packing density in concentric cylinders geometry with given ratio of the particle diameter to the gap between cylinders. It is verified and analyzed further by constructing ordered and disordered packs of monodisperse disks in computer. In this context, Voronoi tessellation is performed for the resulting packs to demonstrate the thickness of the static boundary layer where the packing is influenced by the presence of cylindrical walls.
