Abstract. Funes and Pollack introduced the The buildable objects experiments where structures are evolved that may carry loads. This paper re-evaluates and extends the approach. We propose a new evaluation scheme using maximum network flow algorithms and a graph representation. The obtained structures excel previous results. Furthermore, we are now able to address problems that require more than one bearing.

Keywords: Buildable objects, physics simulation, evolutionary design
