Efficiency of Packings and Coverings with a Sequence of Convex Disks
We search for those convex disks which are: 1) the least efficient for packing the plane, 2) the least efficient for covering it. Thus, in a certain... -
Packing ovals in optimized regular polygons
We present a model development framework and numerical solution approach to the general problem-class of packing convex objects into optimized convex...

Coverings
The concept of covering is dual to that of packing. In this chapter, we shall define lattice covering, general covering, covering density, thinnest... -
Φ-Functions of 2D Objects with Boundaries Being Second-Order Curves
An approach to constructing analytical conditions of non-intersection and inclusion of non-oriented convex 2D objects is considered, the boundaries...

Extremal Properties of Regular Polyhedra
On the surface of a ball the problems of the densest circle packing and the thinnest circle covering with 4, 6, or 12 congruent circles lead to... -
Packing ellipses in an optimized convex polygon
Packing ellipses with arbitrary orientation into a convex polygonal container which has a given shape is considered. The objective is to find a...

Challenges to the Development of Effective Creativity
One of the key problems for students, especially from develo** countries during pandemic is a lack of the electronic materials. Obviously, there... -
A Diffuse Interface Framework for Modeling the Evolution of Multi-cell Aggregates as a Soft Packing Problem Driven by the Growth and Division of Cells
We present a model for cell growth, division and packing under soft constraints that arise from the deformability of the cells as well as of a...

Computational Conformal Geometric Methods for Vision
Conformal geometry studies the geometric properties of objects invariant under conformal transformation group. It is a powerful theoretic tool to... -
Penguin Huddling: A Continuum Model
Penguins huddling in a cold wind are represented by a two-dimensional, continuum model. The huddle boundary evolves due to heat loss to the huddle...
