Title
Flipturning polygons
Abstract
A fiipturr that transforms a nonconvex simple polygon into another simple polygon by rotating a concavity 180 degrees around the midpoint of its bounding convex hull edge. Joss and Shannon proved in 1973 that a sequence of flipturns eventually transforms any simple polygon into a convex polygon. This paper describes several new results about such flipturn sequences. We show that any orthogonal polygon is convex*fled after at most rr 5 arbitrary flipturns, or at most [5(rr 4)/6J well-chosen...
