Virtual Climbing Plants Competing for Space
An old algorithm for visual simulation of climbing plants is extended here. Plants are modeled as systems of oriented particles that are able to sense their environment. Particles move to the best locations using directed random walk. We use the phenomenon of traumatic reiteration for critical cases. If there is no location for further growth possible the particle dies, but before sends a signa...
متن کاملInteractive Modeling and Authoring of Climbing Plants
We present a novel system for the interactive modeling of developmental climbing plants with an emphasis on efficient control and plausible physics response. A plant is represented by a set of connected anisotropic particles that respond to the surrounding environment and to their inner state. Each particle stores biological and physical attributes that drive growth and plant adaptation to the ...
متن کاملThe behavioural ecology of climbing plants
Climbing plants require an external support to grow vertically and enhance light acquisition. Vines that find a suitable support have greater performance and fitness than those that remain prostrate. Therefore, the location of a suitable support is a key process in the life history of climbing plants. Numerous studies on climbing plant behaviour have elucidated mechanistic details of support se...
متن کاملThe Mechanics and Dynamics of Tendril Perversion in Climbing Plants
The mechanics and dynamics of the helix hand reversal (perversion) exhibited by the tendrils of climbing plants is investigated. The tendrils are modeled as thin elastic rods with intrinsic curvature and a linear and nonlinear stability analysis is performed. This system provides an example of curvature driven morphogenesis
متن کاملMechanics of climbing and attachment in twining plants.
Twining plants achieve vertical growth by revolving around supports of different sizes on which they exert a pressure. This observation raises many intriguing questions that are addressed within the framework of elastic filamentary structures by modeling the stem close to the apex as a growing elastic rod. The analysis shows that vertical growth is achieved thanks to discrete contact points and...
