چکیده

Abstract: Trivariate barycentric coordinates can be used both to express a point inside a tetrahedron as a convex combination of the four vertices and to linearly interpolate data given at the vertices. In this paper we generalize these coordinates to convex polyhedra and the kernels of star-shaped polyhedra. These coordinates generalize in a natural way a recently constructed set of coordinates for planar polygons, called mean value coordinates.

Mean Value Coordinates for Arbitrary Spherical Polygons and Polyhedra in

Since their introduction, mean value coordinates enjoy ever increasing popularity in computer graphics and computational mathematics because they exhibit a variety of good properties. Most importantly, they are defined in the whole plane which allows interpolation and extrapolation without restrictions. Recently, mean value coordinates were generalized to spheres and to ’3. We show that these s...

Modeling of Optimal Distances of Surveying Stations for Monitoring Astable Engineering Structures Using Geodetic Methods

Large and astable engineering structures are the great importance and the behavior of such structures is usually made in Geotechnical and Geodetic methods (engineering geodesy). In the geodetic methods, the selection of appropriate surveying stations, in terms of distribution, locations, and distant of the target points to stations the control network, have a significant role in determining th...

A general geometric construction of coordinates in a convex simplicial polytope

Barycentric coordinates are a fundamental concept in computer graphics and geometric modeling. We extend the geometric construction of Floater’s mean value coordinates [8,11] to a general form that is capable of constructing a family of coordinates in a convex 2D polygon, 3D triangular polyhedron, or a higher-dimensional simplicial polytope. This family unifies previously known coordinates, inc...

Interactive Deformation of 3D Mesh Models

This paper proposes a framework for interactively deforming 3D mesh models. 3D mesh models are often used in finite element analysis, but existing surface-based deformation methods fail to deform volumetric elements consistently. In the method proposed here, vertices in a 3D mesh model are classified into boundary vertices and interior vertices. Boundary vertices are treated in the same way as ...
