Transformation matrix, patterns generation, geometryAbstract
This paper aims to explore the generation of circular patterns based on transformation matrix. The idea proposed here is to first design a fundamental pattern, known as ‘seed’. This is then followed by applying the transformation matrix to arrange the fundamental pattern to form a circular pattern. The transformation matrix can be applied once or applied iteratively. By assigning different values to the parameters involved, the patterns produced act in an interesting and appealing way.  The proposed method contributes to a simple and efficient framework in computational generation of endless circular patterns.Â
