Path-distance-based Voronoi grid adaptation on complex geometries

Look here:

FEA for voronoi

Yes - If you have your stress values as mesh vertex colours, you can plug it into the ImageCircles component in Kangaroo to generate a point distribution, then take the Voronoi of that. See here for some similar discussions:

And here:

Image-based Circle Packing within a polygonal limit

If you want the radii of the circles to update as they move around the image, you’ll need a different goal. Luckily there is now a component to do exactly this, including the option to prescribe a tangent boundary: https://github.com/Dan-Piker/Kangaroo-examples/blob/master/collisions_and_packing/Image_circlepacking.gh [image] You can see also some further discussion about variations on this for if you want a compact circle packing where each gap …
