creating a cloud of cuboids
Hi There,
I am trying to set up a case where I obtain a compressed packing of aggregates. Where the aggregates can have a size distribution and aspect ratio. My initial thought was the following:
- Create a loose packing of cuboids
- fill cuboids with spheres using randomdensepack
- compress
However, so far I havent found a method which can create a loose packing of cuboids. Ideally something like makecloud but for cuboids.
My second thought is the following:
- Create a few clumps using randomdensepack and cuboid predicates
- fill a cube with these clumps using makeclumpcloud
- compress
To sumarize my question is the following
Is there a way to create a loose packing of cuboids?
If no: is the second path a good way to go, is there perhaps a better way
many thanks
Jesse
