An Improved Parametric Side-Vertex Triangle Mesh Interpolant
نویسنده
چکیده
There are many schemes for fitting triangular surface patches to a triangular net o f data. In general, lo cal schemes produce surfaces with poor surface qual ity. Although variational techniques construct surfaces o f higher quality, such techniques tend to be computation ally expensive. In this paper, I will present modifications to N ielson’s side-vertex method that improve its surface quality without resorting tb'variational techniques.

Accurate Computation of Geodesic Distance Fields for Polygonal Curves on Triangle Meshes
We present an algorithm for the efficient and accurate computation of geodesic distance fields on triangle meshes. We generalize the algorithm originally proposed by Surazhsky et al. [1]. While the original algorithm is able to compute geodesic distances to isolated points on the mesh only, our generalization can handle arbitrary, possibly open, polygons on the mesh to define the zero set of th...
متن کاملCurvature tensor computation by piecewise surface interpolation
Estimating principal curvatures and principal directions of a smooth surface represented by a triangular mesh is an important step in many CAD or graphics related tasks. This paper presents a new method for curvature tensor estimation on a triangular mesh by replacing flat triangles with triangular parametric patches. An improved local interpolation scheme of cubic triangular Bézier patches to ...
متن کاملA comparison of local parametric C0 Bézier interpolants for triangular meshes
Parametric curved shape surface schemes interpolating vertices and normals of a given triangular mesh with arbitrary topology are widely used in computer graphics for gaming and real-time rendering due to their ability of effectively represent any surface of arbitrary genus. During the last ten years a large body of work has been devoted to the definition of local parametric schemes able to ens...
متن کاملShock Scaffold Segregation and Surface Recovery
The shock scaffold is a hierarchical organization of the medial axis ( ) in 3D consisting of special medial points, and curves connecting these points, thereby forming a geometric directed graph [7]. We will describe a new method for segregating the shock scaffold ( ) for an unorganized cloud of points in 3D in two sub-groups, one of which is used to mesh the point generators into a surface int...
متن کاملFully Embedded Coding of Triangle Meshes
An algorithm for triangle mesh compression is presented. Any mesh topology can be coded. Vertex coordinates and mesh connectivity are simultaneously coded with increasing level-ofdetail. The bit stream can be sequentially decoded and vertex accuracy and mesh resolution gradually re ned. The embedded code allows progressive transmission of triangle meshes and continuous decoding of 3D geometry. ...
