Quasi-Projection: Aperiodic concrete formwork for perceived surface complexity (2009)

Ottevaere, O., Hanna, S.

Aperiodic tiling patterns result in endlessly varied local configurations of a limited set of basic polygons, and as such may be used to economically produce non-repeating, complex forms from a...

Hanna, S.

The spectrum of an axial graph is proposed as a means for comparison between spaces, particularly for measuring between very large and complex graphs. A number of methods have been used in recent...
