Modeling Origami for Computational Construction and Beyond
Computational origami is the computer assisted study of origami as a branch of science of shapes. The origami construction is a countably finite sequence of fold steps, each consisting in folding along a line. In this paper, we formalize origami construction. We model origami paper by a set of faces over which we specify relations of overlay and adjacency. A fold line is determined by a specific fold method. After folding along the fold line, the structure of origami is transformed; some faces are divided and moved, new faces are created and therefore the relations over the faces change. We give a formal method to construct the model origami. The model furthermore induces a graph of layers of faces. We give two origami examples as the application of our model. They exhibit non-trivial aspects of origami which are revealed only by formal modelmodel is the abstraction of the implemented core of the system of computational origami called Eos (E-origami system).
