+%% create a crack propagation pattern wit following parameters :
+%% - pattern is bounded by area BOX which is a polygon.
+%% - each crack originates from points given in POINTS
+%% - directions of each crack is given by a [NxM] array ALPHA, where M is

+%% - a crack stop when it reaches another already created crack.
+%% - all cracks stop when they reach the border of the frame, given by box
+%% (a serie of 4 points).
