Description

We provide specific examples of how a class of exact solutions of Einstein's equations (the Szekeres models) can be worked out to describe the evolution of a collection of over-densities and voids in assorted directions. The resulting structures can be used to study the full relativistic non-linear effects in the dynamics of structure formation and growth suppression, in gravitational lensing and in fitting observations in the galactic cluster and super-cluster scale.
