the condition that a packing has exactly the number of contacts needed for mechanical stability, which jammed frictionless packings reach at the jamming point.

In soft matter physics, isostaticity refers to the condition that a packing has exactly the number of contacts needed for mechanical stability, which jammed frictionless packings reach at the jamming point. This meaning comes from Moukarzel (1998) in Physical Review Letters.[1]
