A New Mesh Simplification Algorithm for the Application of Surface Sculpture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mesh model simplification has received increasing attention recent years. However, few algorithms are developed for the application of manufacturing. We have developed a simplification algorithm from the character of surface sculpture manufacturing, which can rapidly produce faithful approximations of the triangle mesh models. Moreover, the simplified mesh generated by our algorithm is composed of regular shaped and regular sized triangles, which will enhance the model’s machinability greatly. The algorithm uses iterative edge collapse to simplify models and maintains model features using vertex importance value.

Simplification of surface mesh using Hausdorff envelope
This paper presents a new method for surface mesh simplification. Given an initial surface mesh (denoted as reference mesh), the goal is to reduce the number of mesh elements while preserving the geometric approximation as well as the shape quality of the resulting mesh. Two tolerance areas with respect to the reference mesh have been introduced to preserve the geometry of the surface. The refe...
متن کاملAssessment of mesh simplification algorithm quality
This paper describes a method to compare an original mesh and its simplified representation. Meshes considered here contain geometric features as well as other surface attributes such as material colors, texture, temperature, and radiation, etc. Many simplification algorithms have been presented in literature. In this paper we present a new method to assess mesh simplification algorithm quality...

متن کاملGeneric attribute deviation metric for assessing mesh simplification algorithm quality
We propose a mesh comparison method using a new Attribute Deviation Metric (ADM). Considered meshes contain geometric and appearance attributes (material colors, textures, normals,...). The proposed deviation metric computes local differences between attributes of two meshes. Mesh comparison assessment can be done easily and quickly using this metric. We present an application to mesh simplific...
متن کاملFast Stellar Mesh Simplification
This paper introduces Stellar Simplification, a fast implementation of the Four–Face Cluster algorithm. In our version of this mesh simplification scheme, we adopt a probabilistic heuristic that substitutes the priority queue of the original algorithm. This made our version, in average, 40% faster. In our implementation, we adopt a very concise data structure which uses only two arrays of integ...
