Interactive design exploration for constrained meshes

In architectural design, surface shapes are commonly subject to geometric constraints imposed by material, fabrication or assembly. Rationalization algorithms can convert a freeform design into a form feasible for production, but often require design modifications that might not comply with the design intent. In addition, they only offer limited support for exploring alternative feasible shapes...

Intuitive Design Exploration of Constrained Meshes

Based on the recent work of Yang et al. [2011], we propose several intuitive tools to quickly create new architectural freeform shapes starting from a single input design, while conforming to a set of prescribed constraints and optimizing for specified quality measures. We allow the user to control the final shape by prescribing desirable curves on the final shape, access the desirable regions ...

The Combinatorial Multi-Mode Resource Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Problem

This paper presents the formulation and solution of the Combinatorial Multi-Mode Resource Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Problem. The focus of the proposed method is not on finding a single optimal solution, instead on presenting multiple feasible solutions, with cost and duration information to the project manager. The motivation for developing such an approach is due in part to practica...
