circle packing

I would like to create a domed structure with this pattern that would be constructed out of wood. The form is a Diatom.

I have an irregular boundary, with an off axis center. I believe the best way to do it is via Circle packing. Is that correct?

My boundary is on the 3dm file atached
Im not sure even where to start. I would love some help from you and the community!
Thanks in advance

Hi Declan, There is an example of this on the page here: http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/kangaroo/page/kangaroo2-addition...

(the 'TangentIncircles' definition)

Hi Daniel - Is there any way to update this for K2?

Hi Daniel,

Would you please share some examples of "circle packing with radii given by an interpolated field !" its really appreciated.

Regards,

Navid

HEllo Daniel, im studing at the circle packing and i found your definition. the outcome looks great. but i cant open your definition,. im using the newest kangoroo version. could be so kind to update it or post an jpg so i can rebuild it by my self. thank you very much.

this link is awsome

getting mutliple tangencies by circlepacking-triangulation-circles is so gooood ...love it

Thanks again!

Looks very cool Daniel !!!

I've now posted the definition here:

http://www.grasshopper3d.com/group/kangaroo/forum/topics/circle-pac...

and yes - there are some interesting potential ways of using this for 3d stuff too

such as conformal parameterizations, and discrete minimal surfaces

...and now in stereo (meaning 3d) ;)
