Description
Coauthored by one of the creators of the most efficient space packing solution, this book focuses on both scientific and everyday problems ranging from atoms to honeycombs. It describes packing models, such as the Kepler conjecture, Voronoï decomposition, and Delaunay decomposition, as well as actual structure models, such as the Kelvin cell and the Weaire-Phelan structure. The authors discuss numerous historical aspects and provide biographical details on influential contributors to the field. This edition continues and revises some of the stories from its predecessor while adding several new examples and applications, including the design of the 2008 Olympics National Aquatic Center.
