Geometric Continuous Patch Complexes by
نویسنده
چکیده
A theory of geometric continuity of arbitrary order is presented. Conditions of geometric continuity at a vertex where a number of patches meet are investigated. Geometric continuous patch complexes are introduced as the appropriate setting for the representation of surfaces in CAGD. The theory is applied to the modelling of closed surfaces and the fitting of triangular patches into a geometric continuous patch complex.

Geometric theories of patch and Lawson topologies
We give geometric characterisations of patch and Lawson topologies in the context of predicative point-free topology using the constructive notion of located subset. We present the patch topology of a stably locally compact formal topology by a geometric theory whose models are the points of the given topology that are located, and the Lawson topology of a continuous lattice by a geometric theo...
متن کاملIsogeometric analysis with geometrically continuous functions on two-patch geometries
We study the linear space of C-smooth isogeometric functions defined on a multi-patch domain Ω ⊂ R. We show that the construction of these functions is closely related to the concept of geometric continuity of surfaces, which has originated in geometric design. More precisely, the C-smoothness of isogeometric functions is found to be equivalent to geometric smoothness of the same order (G-smoot...
متن کاملSurface Approximation Using Geometric Hermite Patches
A high-order-of-approximation surface patch is used to construct continuous, approximating surfaces. This patch, together with a relaxation of tangent plane continuity, is used to approximate offset surfaces, algebraic surfaces, and S-patches.
متن کاملGeometric and Electronic Structures of Vanadium Sub-nano Clusters, Vn (n = 2-5), and their Adsorption Complexes with CO and O2 Ligands: A DFT-NBO Study
In this study, electronic structures of ground state of pure vanadium sub-nano clusters, Vn (n=2-5), and their interactions with small ligands for example CO and triplet O2 molecules are investigated by using density functional theory (DFT) calibration at the mPWPW91/QZVP level of theory. The favorable orientations of these ligands in interaction with pure vanadium sub-nano clusters were determ...
متن کاملShape complexes: the intersection of label orderings and star convexity constraints in continuous max-flow medical image segmentation.
Optimization-based segmentation approaches deriving from discrete graph-cuts and continuous max-flow have become increasingly nuanced, allowing for topological and geometric constraints on the resulting segmentation while retaining global optimality. However, these two considerations, topological and geometric, have yet to be combined in a unified manner. The concept of "shape complexes," which...
