Jamming, glass transition, and entropy in monodisperse and polydisperse hard-sphere packings

This thesis is dedicated to the investigation of properties of computer-generated monodisperse and polydisperse three-dimensional hard-sphere packings, frictional and frictionless. For frictionless packings, we (i) assess their total (fluid) entropy in a wide range of packing densities (solid volum...
