Dynamic Adaptive Meshes

چکیده

In this paper we present dynamic adaptive meshes, a scheme for maintaining a conforming triangulation of time-varying surfaces. The user supplies an initial mesh, a surface sampling procedure and a set of adaptation criteria. The mesh is automatically modified in order to conform to user defined characteristics, while the surface changes over time. Our scheme is very simple to implement. It employs a half-edge data structure without any extra storage requirements. The mesh has an underlying semi-regular multiresolution structure. Furthermore, the specification of desired mesh characteristics can be based on very general adaptation rules.

Adaptive meshes and shells: irregular triangulation, discontinuities, and hierarchical subdivision

Adaptive meshes are dynamic networks of nodal masses interconnected by adjustable springs. They are useful for nonuniformly sampling and reconstructing visual data. This paper extends the adaptive mesh model in the following ways: it (i) develops open adaptive meshes and closed adaptive shells based on triangular and rectangular elements, (ii) proposes a discontinuity detection and preservation...

A Fault-tolerant Adaptive and Minimal Routing Scheme in $n$-D Meshes

In this paper a sufficient condition is given for minimal routing in n-dimensional (n-D) meshes with faulty nodes contained in a set of disjoint fault regions. It is based on an early work of the author on minimal routing in low-dimensional meshes (such as 2-D meshes with faulty blocks). Unlike many traditional models that assume all the nodes know global fault distribution, our approach is bas...

Adaptive Visualization of Dynamic Unstructured Meshes

Visualization of time-varying volume data is essential for understanding the results of scientific simulations. Interactive exploration of these datasets is a challenging problem since the data is often unstructured and may contain many time and domain field instances. We propose an adaptive framework for interactively volume rendering large dynamic unstructured meshes on a commodity PC by effi...

Animation Model Simplifications

In this paper, we propose a new framework for the representation of deforming meshes by only updating necessary changes of the connectivity. The deforming meshes, which is also known as time-varying surfaces, are often constructed with static connectivity. To progressively represent the deforming meshes with level-of-details, people can simplify the meshes independently to obtain good simplific...

Design and Analysis of a Lightweight Parallel Adaptive Scheme for the Solution of the Monodomain Equation

Numerical simulation of the non-linear reaction-diffusion equations in computational electrocardiology requires locally high spatial resolution to capture the multiscale effects related to the electrical activation of the heart accurately, namely the strongly varying action potential. Here, we propose a novel lightweight adaptive algorithm which aims at combining the plainness of structured mes...

Sampling and reconstruction with adaptive meshes

This paper introduces an approach to visual sampling and reconstruction motivated by concepts from numerical grid generation. We develop adaptive meshes that can nonuniformly sample and reconstruct intensity and range data. Adaptive meshes are dynamic models which are assembled by interconnecting nodal masses with adjustable springs. Acting as mobile sampling sites, the nodes observe interestin...
