Chapter Chapter 13 in Introduction to Cutting and Packing Optimization, 2018, pp 385-405 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Tasks of optimally packing circles or spheres mostly lead to mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems. Therefore, such problems can especially be hard to solve. Within this chapter we will address various problems of such kind and related solution strategies, in particular, the arrangement of identical or different circles within a circle, rectangle, or strip.
