Corner-Sharing Tetrahedra for Modeling Micro-structure.

This paper introduces Corner-Sharing Tetrahedra (CoSTs), a minimalist, constraint-graph representation of micro-structure. CoSTs have built-in structural guarantees, such as connectivity and minimal rigidity. CoSTs form a space, fully accessible via local operations, that is rich enough to design regular or irregular micro-structure at multiple scales within curved objects.
