Generation of LDPM structure formed by Voronoi cells

Abstract

A preliminary study of an approach to internal structure generation used in lattice discrete particle models (LDPMs) [1]. The presented method used for particle generation and placement is intended to help realistically capture the internal structure of materials. First, a method for structure generation using LDPM is presented. Then, the method of particle generation using a Voronoi diagram [2] is described. The last part is the optimizations on the algorithm that use Apollonius circles to calculate the specific points of the Voronoi diagram.
