چکیده

We study discrete curvatures computed from nets of curvature lines on a given smooth surface, and prove their uniform convergence to smooth principal curvatures. We provide explicit error bounds, with constants depending only on properties of the smooth limit surface and the shape regularity of the discrete net.

A curvature theory for discrete surfaces based on mesh parallelity

We consider a general theory of curvatures of discrete surfaces equipped with edgewise parallel Gauss images, and where mean and Gaussian curvatures of faces are derived from the faces’ areas and mixed areas. Remarkably these notions are capable of unifying notable previously defined classes of surfaces, such as discrete isothermic minimal surfaces and surfaces of constant mean curvature.We dis...

Curvature line parametrization from circle patterns

We study local and global approximations of smooth nets of curvature lines and smooth conjugate nets by respective discrete nets (circular nets and planar quadrilateral nets) with edges of order ǫ. It is shown that choosing the points of discrete nets on the smooth surface one can obtain the order ǫ 2 approximation globally. Also a simple geometric construction for approximate determination of ...

High-Dimensional Menger-Type Curvatures - Part II: d-Separation and a Menagerie of Curvatures

This is the second of two papers wherein we estimate multiscale least squares approximations of certain measures by Menger-type curvatures (defined in Part I). More specifically, we study an arbitrary d-regular measure μ on a real separable Hilbert space, where d ∈ N. The main result of this paper bounds the least squares error of approximating μ at any ball B by an average of the discrete Meng...

A 3D thin nets extraction method for medical imaging

This paper presents a powerful tool designed to extract characteristic lines, called 3D thin nets, from 3D volumetric images. 3D thin nets are the lines where the 3D grey level function is locally extremum in a given plane. Recently, we have shown that it is possible to characterize 2D thin nets as the crest lines of the image surface. This paper generalizes this approach to 3D data having thre...

Non-uniform, axisymmetric misfit strain: in thin films bonded on plate substrates/substrate systems: the relation between non-uniform film stresses and system curvatures

Current methodologies used for the inference of thin film stress through curvature measurements are strictly restricted to stress and curvature states which are assumed to remain uniform over the entire film/substrate system. By considering a circular thin film/substrate system subject to non-uniform, but axisymmetric misfit strain distributions in the thin film, we derived relations between th...
