Abstract
In an example implementation, a method of generating a conformal structure, includes generating a bottom surface and a top surface of a conformal structure, positioning seed points on a seed surface, where the seed surface comprises the bottom surface or the top surface, and expanding the seed points as spherical cells whose cell boundaries form walls perpendicular to the surfaces as the cell boundaries intersect with cell boundaries of neighboring spherical cells. The method includes intersecting the walls with the top surface as the cells expand vertically upward from the seed surface and intersecting the walls with the bottom surface as the cells expand vertically downward from the seed surface, and applying the conformal structure to a 3D object model for fabrication in an additive manufacturing device.
