Procedural modeling of structurally-sound masonry buildings
Emily Whiting, John Ochsendorf, Frédo Durand · ACM Transactions on Graphics · 2009
We introduce structural feasibility into procedural modeling of buildings. This allows for more realistic structural models that can be interacted with in physical simulations. While existing structural analysis tools focus heavily on providing an analysis of the stress state, our proposed method automatically tunes a set of designated free parameters to obtain forms that are structurally sound.
