Mapping volumetric properties on molecular surfaces in real-time
نویسندگان
چکیده
A method for the fast generation of solid molecular surfaces is described. Based on a three dimensional grid, a template driven procedure generates the so called “contact surface“, also known as Connolly surface. The main advantages of this method are its good perfarmance and that it directly generates continuously tessellated

Real-time Rendering of Translucent Volumetric Surfaces
We present a real-time technique for rendering translucent features on opaque volumetric surfaces. It relies on modern reprogrammable graphics hardware to compute the complicated visual phenomena seen in translucent materials. The proposed technique is based on relief mapping techniques, and is therefore capable of interacting with the underlying opaque surface accurately. A hard self-shadowing...
متن کاملReal - time merging of visible surfacesfor display and segmentationRobert
A technique has been developed which combines the high image quality of volumetric rendering with the interactivity associated with surface rendering by texture mapping pre-rendered images onto depth map-based partial models of the surface. An original real-time algorithm is presented which allows us to combine multiple overlapping visible surfaces free of occlusion artifacts associated with po...
متن کاملAdult Stem Cells Properties in Terms of Commitment, Aging and Biological Safety of Grit-Blasted and Acid-Etched Ti Dental Implants Surfaces
Titanium (Ti) is one of the most widely used biomaterials for manufacturing dental implants. The implant surface properties strongly influence osseointegration. The aim of the present study was to in vitro investigate the characteristics of Ti dental implants in terms of mutagenicity, hemocompatibility, biocompatibility, osteoinductivity and biological safety. The Ames test was used to test the...
متن کاملRendering volumetric data in molecular systems
A raster-based computer graphics method of imaging volumetric data (data sampled on a three-dimensional grid) has been added to an existing molecular rendering program. Any molecular property expressed as a 30 grid of scalar data values can be displayed around and inside of the molecular van der Waals surface as a collection of colored clouds and transparent surfaces. Different antical properti...
متن کاملHardware accelerated voxelization
This paper presents a hardware accelerated approach to the voxelization of a wide range of 3D objects, including curves/surfaces, solids, and geometric and volumetric CSG models. The algorithms generate slices of the object models using a surface graphics processor to form the nal volume representations. Boolean operations in a volumetric CSG model are carried out using frame bu er blending fun...
