Eptar Tiling [Browser POPULAR]

Deep learning models (Transformers, GNNs) now generate novel Eptar-like tilings with desired mechanical spectra. A 2024 Nature paper demonstrated that neural networks can invert the design: given a target stress-strain curve, output a tiling rule.

Eptar tiling, also known as the "eptar lattice" or "9-fold tiling," is a type of aperiodic tiling that has garnered significant attention in recent years due to its unique properties and potential applications. This article provides an overview of eptar tiling, its history, mathematical structure, and some of its key characteristics. eptar tiling
