VoroNoodles: Topological Interlocking with Helical Layered 2‐Honeycombs
A new class of topological interlocking structures using building blocks dubbed Voronoi Noodles are presented. The recipe for this design is based on the concept of Delone sets. Examples of space‐filling topologically interlocked planar, cylindrical, spherical, and saddle‐point assemblies constructed from such building blocks are given. An approach for
