Summary
| Description |
English: Packing more than 2n circles of diameter 1 in an n X 2 strip. In this case the strip is 16x2 and 31 circles fit entirely inside, and including the fractional circles we clearly get more than one extra. The unit cell is 1+2*sqrt(sqrt(3)-3/4)=2.981969532, and contains 6 circles, giving a density of 1.006046496. Since it is an SVG image, you can zoom in to confirm that the circles do not overlap. |
