Digital Modeling and Movement Resolution of Rubber Band Analogy for 2D Packing Problem

Article Preview

Abstract:

Packing problem is how to arrange the components in available spaces to make the layout compact. This paper adopts a digital modeling algorithm to establish a novel rubber band convex hull model to solve this problem. A ray scanning method analogy QuickHull algorithm is presented to get extreme points of rubber band convex hull. A plural vector expression approach is adopted to movement resolution,which calculate the resultant vector to translate, rotate and slide the subbody to make the volume decrease. An experiment proved this digital modeling algorithm effective.
