Packing circles in rectangle6/19/2023 I have added a simple dichotomic search on top of it to guess the minimal surface (which yields the smallest bounding rectangle for a given aspect ratio). (it simply tries to fit a bunch of circles into a given rectangle). The original algorithm does not produce the smallest rectangle to hold all the circles The algorithm simply starts with the four bounding circles and adds one circle at a time, using the greedy heuristic lambda parameter to pick the "best" location. This also simplifies the start condition greatly. Packing (uniform radius) Circles inside a Rectangle / Eve Matson Observable Exploring a variant on Wang et al.’s circle-packing algorithm. e.g., the container can be circle, rectangle or polygon, and the packed. shapes (bounded by circular arcs and line segments) in a rectangle, circle, con- vex polygon or convex hull, which supports applications in packing. The "corner" circles (as the algorithm calls them) are all computed as tangents to a pair of circles, thus eliminating the special circle+segment or segment+segment cases. Efficiently Packing Circles into a Larger Containing Circle Jingfa Liu1. They are computed to pass through the corners of the bounding box and converge toward the actual sides when the radius grows. The picture shows what the 4 bounding circles look like when the radius is decreased. Instead of segments defining the bounding box, I used circles with "infinite" radii, that can be considered a good approximation of lines: I used a trick to make the computation more regular. The shape of the container may vary from a circle, a square, a rectangular, etc. I tweaked it quite a bit, but I think it does basically the same thing. The circle packing problem is a well studied problem whose aim is the packing of a certain number of circles, each one with a fixed known radius (not necessary the same for each circle) inside a container. Here is a go at the implementation of your algorithm. This is the general pattern: function drawCircles() ) There's a much better way to do this - using Mitchell's Best Fit algorithm.
