A Minkowski difference‐based advancing front packing technique for generating convex noncircular particles in complex domains

In this work, a Minkowski difference‐based advancing front approach is proposed to generate convex and non‐circular particles in a predefined computational domain. Two specific algorithms are developed to handle the contact conformity of generated particles with the boundaries of the computational d...
