2. Packing problems - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packing_problems

   Packing problems are a class of optimization problems in mathematics that involve attempting to pack objects together into containers. The goal is to either pack a single container as densely as possible or pack all objects using as few containers as possible. Many of these problems can be related to real-life packaging, storage and ...

3. Block-stacking problem - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block-stacking_problem

   The block-stacking problem is the following puzzle: Place identical rigid rectangular blocks in a stable stack on a table edge in such a way as to maximize the overhang. Paterson et al. (2007) provide a long list of references on this problem going back to mechanics texts from the middle of the 19th century.

4. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

   Close-packing of equal spheres. In geometry, close-packing of equal spheres is a dense arrangement of congruent spheres in an infinite, regular arrangement (or lattice ). Carl Friedrich Gauss proved that the highest average density – that is, the greatest fraction of space occupied by spheres – that can be achieved by a lattice packing is.

   Compound of six cubes. A compound of six cubes has two forms. One form is a symmetric arrangement of six cubes, considered as square prisms. It is a special case of the compound of six cubes with rotational freedom . Another form is not related to a compound of six cubes with rotational freedom. [1]

   Dual. self-dual. Properties. vertex-transitive, edge-transitive, face-transitive, cell-transitive. The 6-cubic honeycomb or hexeractic honeycomb is the only regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 6-space. It is analogous to the square tiling of the plane and to the cubic honeycomb of 3-space.
