Abstract
Random sequential packings of identical rectangles a11d identical ellipses are respectively considered. By performing computer simulations, the values of the packing density of rectangle in the complete packing are 0.501 ~ 0.508 for a range of aspect ratio 1.0 ≤ k ≤ 2.0, while the values for ellipses in the near complete packing are 0.533 ~ 0.540 for the same range of aspect ratio.
Keywords : aspect ratio, ellipses, packing density, rectangles
