  2. Flood fill - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flood_fill

    Flood fill, also called seed fill, is a flooding algorithm that determines and alters the area connected to a given node in a multi-dimensional array with some matching attribute. It is used in the "bucket" fill tool of paint programs to fill connected, similarly colored areas with a different color, and in games such as Go and Minesweeper for ...

  3. Tetrahedron packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron_packing

    Tetrahedral packaging. Aristotle claimed that tetrahedra could fill space completely. [4] [5]In 2006, Conway and Torquato showed that a packing fraction about 72% can be obtained by constructing a non-Bravais lattice packing of tetrahedra (with multiple particles with generally different orientations per repeating unit), and thus they showed that the best tetrahedron packing cannot be a ...

  4. Sphere packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing

    Sphere packing finds practical application in the stacking of cannonballs. In geometry, a sphere packing is an arrangement of non-overlapping spheres within a containing space. The spheres considered are usually all of identical size, and the space is usually three-dimensional Euclidean space.

  5. Sphere packing in a sphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_sphere

    Sphere packing in a sphere is a three-dimensional packing problem with the objective of packing a given number of equal spheres inside a unit sphere.

  6. Sphere packing in a cylinder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_cylinder

    Sphere packing in a cylinder is a three-dimensional packing problem with the objective of packing a given number of identical spheres inside a cylinder of specified diameter and length. For cylinders with diameters on the same order of magnitude as the spheres, such packings result in what are called columnar structures .

  7. Sphere packing in a cube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sphere_packing_in_a_cube

    In geometry, sphere packing in a cube is a three-dimensional sphere packing problem with the objective of packing spheres inside a cube. It is the three-dimensional equivalent of the circle packing in a square problem in two dimensions. The problem consists of determining the optimal packing of a given number of spheres inside the cube.

  8. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    The first sphere of this row only touches one sphere in the original row, but its location follows suit with the rest of the row. The next row follows this pattern of shifting the x-coordinate by r and the y-coordinate by √ 3. Add rows until reaching the x and y maximum borders of the box.

  9. Texture mapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texture_mapping

    A texture map [5] [6] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [7] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture.They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.
