Effects of particle-size ratio on jamming of binary mixtures at zero temperature†
Abstract
We perform a systematic numerical study of the effects of the particle-size ratio R ≥ 1 on the properties of jammed binary mixtures. We find that changing R does not qualitatively affect the critical scaling of the pressure and coordination number with the compression near the jamming transition, but the critical volume fraction at the jamming transition varies with R. Moreover, the static structure factor (density correlation)
