A dichotomous search-based heuristic for the three-dimensional sphere packing problem
In this paper, the three-dimensional sphere packing problem is solved by using a dichotomous search-based heuristic. An instance of the problem is defined by a set of $ n $ unequal spheres and an object of fixed width and height and, unlimited length. Each sphere is characterized by its radius and t...
