Title:
Heuristics for Packing Semifluids
Abstract:
Physical properties of materials are seldom studied in the context of
packing problems. In this work we study the behavior of semifluids:
materials with particular characteristics, that share properties both
with solids and with fluids. We describe the importance of some
specific semifluids in an industrial context, and propose methods for
tackling the problem of packing them, taking into account several
practical requirements and physical constraints. Although the focus
of this talk is on the computation of practical solutions, it also
uncovers interesting mathematical properties of this problem, which
differentiate it from other packing problems.
