The special property of origami to fold into almost any shape renders their application in the design of metamaterials a conceptually promising direction in which advanced mechanical and physical properties can be configured based on the specific geometries a structure exhibits during the folding motion....
In nature and life, they appear often: Honeycombs... Mud flats... Read headings… Click when slide finishes... In games, like checkers.. Tessellations in Nature snake skin spider web armadillo armor Tessellations are all around us: Look for tessellations in walls, patios and pavements. Tessel...
John Foxx/Stockbyte/Getty Images Tessellation is another word for tiling. A tessellation is created when you fit individual tiles together to fill a flat space like a floor, wall or ceiling without gaps or overlaps. Although we do not know when tiles were first invented, the Tile Association ...
In this paper, we propose a framework that harnesses the inherent tessellated nature of remotely images using continuity to generate HR images that tackle atmospheric and radiometric condition variations. Our proposed solution utilizes self tessellations to fully harness the image heuristics to generate ...
Here’s a small sampling of his work, with links to the original flickr images. Check out this box pleated house structure – imagine pleating together a whole city? Andrew linked to thisadditional blog post, as well, with another fantastic box-pleated house… it serves as a good example ...
