چکیده

Recently, Guibas et al. 10 studied deformable necklaces – flexible chains of balls, called beads, in which only adjacent balls can intersect. In this paper, we investigate the problem of covering a necklace by cylinders. We consider several problems under different optimization criteria. We show that optimal cylindrical cover of a necklace with n beads in R by k cylinders can be computed in polynomial time. We also study a bounding volume hierarchy based on cylinders.

Analysis of Layered Hierarchies for Necklaces

We study a hierarchical approach for modeling deformable necklaces. A recent paper by Guibas et al. [5] introduced two hierarchies, wrapped and layered. They proved that the wrapped hierarchy admits a separating family of size O(n2−2/d). The main result of this paper is that the same bound holds for the layered hierarchy. The layered hierarchy has some advantages compared with wrapped hierarchy...

Analysis of Layered Hierarchy for Necklaces

Molecular configurations can be modeled as sets of spheres in 3D. By imposing geometric constraints on the spheres based on molecular biology one can apply efficient techniques [3], for example, to analyze the complexity of molecular surface [1]. Guibas et al. [2] introduced a model called necklace that finds applications in computer graphics, computer vision, robotics, geographic information s...

Experimental and FEM Analysis of Ribs Defects on Composite Lattice Cylindrical Shells

In this study, the behavior of a composite lattice cylindrical shell is investigated in the buckling deforming. Also, the distribution of shell buckling response and the stress field is studied after making some defects on the ribs.Therefore using ANSYS software, a 3D finite element model of the shell has been created for the analysis. Material properties and geometrical data of the shell are o...

Visual Interpretation of Cylindrical Deformation

This paper presents a new technique for the interpretation of the changing intensity image generated by a cylindrical Lambertian surface undergoing a stretching motion, such that it may be regarded as a deforming curve in a plane. The method, based around the rate of intensity change, uses a regularisation-style approach to estimate the tangential and normal velocities along the surface, assumi...
