Implicit Surface Modeling using Supershapes and R-functions
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a method to represent solid objects as multiple combinations of globally deformed supershapes. Our approach handles primitives that have both parametric and implicit representations. An implicit equation with guaranteed di erential properties is obtained by combinations of the primitives' implicit representations using R-functions. The surface corresponding to the zero-set of the implicit equation is e ciently and directly polygonized using the primitives' parametric forms. We illustrate our approach by representing complex models composed of several hundreds of primitives.

Rational Supershapes for Surface Reconstruction
Simple representation of complex 3D data sets is a fundamental problem in computer vision. From a quality control perspective, it is crucial to use efficient and simple techniques do define a reference model for further recognition or comparison tasks. In this paper, we focus on reverse engineering 3D data sets by recovering rational supershapes to build an implicit function to represent mechan...
متن کاملAdequate inner bound for geometric modeling with compact field functions
Recent advances in implicit surface modeling now provide highly controllable blending effects. These effects rely on the field functions of R → R in which the implicit surfaces are defined. In these fields, there is an outside part in which blending is defined and an inside part. The implicit surface is the interface between these two parts. As recent operators often focus on blending, most eff...
متن کاملIsogeometric Topology Optimization by Using Optimality Criteria and Implicit Function
A new method for structural topology optimization is introduced which employs the Isogeometric Analysis (IA) method. In this approach, an implicit function is constructed over the whole domain by Non-Uniform Rational B-Spline (NURBS) basis functions which are also used for creating the geometry and the surface of solution of the elasticity problem. Inspiration of the level set method zero level...
متن کاملSubdivision interpolating implicit surfaces
Interpolating implicit surfaces using radial basis functions can directly specify surface points and surface normals with closed form solutions, so they are elegantly used in surface reconstruction and shape morphing. This paper presents subdivision interpolating implicit surfaces, a new progressive subdivision tessellation scheme for interpolating implicit surfaces controlled by a triangular m...
متن کاملAnalytical methods for polynomial weighted convolution surfaces with various kernels
Convolution surface has the advantage of being crease-free and bulge-free over other kinds of implicit surfaces. Among the various types of skeletal elements, line segments can be considered one of the most fundamental as they can approximate curve skeletons. This paper presents analytical solutions for convolving line segments with varying kernels modulated by polynomial weighted functions. We...
