CRACKPATTERN2 Create a (bounded) crack pattern tessellation. E = crackPattern2(BOX, POINTS, ALPHA) create a crack propagation pattern wit following parameters : - pattern is bounded by area BOX which is a polygon. - each crack originates from points given in POINTS - directions of each crack is given by a [NxM] array ALPHA, where M is the number of rays emanating from each seed/ - a crack stop when it reaches another already created crack. - all cracks stop when they reach the border of the frame, given by box (a serie of 4 points). The result is a collection of edges, in the form [x1 y1 x2 y2]. E = crackPattern2(BOX, POINTS, ALPHA, SPEED) Also specify speed of propagation of each crack. See the result with : figure; drawEdge(E); See also drawEdge --------- author : David Legland INRA - TPV URPOI - BIA IMASTE created the 25/05/2004.
