Classification and Computer Simulation of 2D Tessellations

Article Preview

Abstract:

In an analogy to the 3D tool of tessellation classification – w−s diagram, a similar graphical device is proposed for 2D tessellations. Any tessellation is represented by a point in the Cartesian coordinate system with the axes Ep (the mean cell perimeter) and CV a (the coefficient of cell area variation). Images of tessellations and p−CV a diagrams for selected tessellations with low and high values of CV a are shown as examples.
