Polygonal Branching, Simulation of Crystal Growth Experiment
Based on a simple propagation behavior. This exercise simulates growth patterns via the application of branching systems described by Robert Hodgin @ flight404. The process attempts to mimic supersaturation whereby objects gain mass in relation to its size. Successive generations are diminished duplicates of their parents with variable attributes such as size and shape. Their positions are determined by random branch paths and do not display any uniformity.
ts structure is derived from operating conditions of its growth process and will not react to further change in after-growth conditions. Although qualities such as complex form, reflection of age and recursive behavior are present, it does not appear to display functional adaption by reacting to external stimuli.
Future exercises will address the above mentioned shortcomings by investigating and implementing feedback loops into growth patterns and behavior.
