3d Model Deformation along a Parametric Surface

چکیده
Free-Form Deformation (FFD) is an efficient technique for editing the shapes of 3D models, and widely used in Computer-Aided Design (CAD), computer animation, computer graphics entertainment etc. The basic idea of some famous previous FFD approaches deforms a target 3D model by adjusting some control points of a 3D lattice surrounding the model. It is a tedious work, especially when the lattice contains too many control points. Moreover, how to place the control points of the lattice to make them cover the region of the target model is also a problem, and it is also difficult to keep the geometric measurement for the deformed model. Therefore, in this paper, a novel FFD method without any latticelike structure is proposed by borrowing the idea of nondistortion texture-mapping for free-form surfaces. By using this method, the shape of the deformed model due to a given parametric surface can be predicted easily, so that the user can get his or her desirable results more intuitively and has no necessary to place the control points of a proper lattice. Moreover, since this method is simple, efficient, and has a real-time response, it is more suitable for doing the animation with thin objects.

Tracking Medical 3D Data with a Deformable Parametric Model
We present a new approach to surface tracking applied to 3D medical data with a deformable model. It is based on a parametric model composed of a superquadric t followed by a Free-Form Deformation (FFD), that gives a compact representation of a set of points in a 3D image. We present three diierent approaches to track surfaces in a sequence of 3D cardiac images. From the tracking, we infer quan...
متن کاملFreeform surface flattening based on fitting a woven mesh model
This paper presents a robust and efficient surface flattening approach based on fitting a woven-like mesh model on a 3D freeform surface. The fitting algorithm is based on tendon node mapping (TNM) and diagonal node mapping (DNM), where TNM determines the position of a new node on the surface along the warp or weft direction and DNM locates a node along the diagonal direction. During the 3D fit...
متن کاملInteractive Editing of Sealed Geological 3D Models
1. Abstract We propose a method to interactively modify contacts between surfaces in a 3D boundaryrepresentation geological model. The modification is based on a hierarchy between a slip surface (a surface that other surfaces can slide along, which in geology could include faults, erosion surfaces, salt tops) and a secondary, deformable surface (e.g. horizon, older fault). The border of the def...
متن کاملVirtual 3D Sculpting
This paper presents a virtual sculpting method for interactive 3D object deformation. The method is based on the use of an electronic glove. A parametric control hand surface defined by an Open-Uniform B-Spline tensor product surface is first created to model the hand gesture. The geometric attributes of the object in the Euclidean 3D space are then mapped to the parametric domain of the contro...
متن کاملSegmentation of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms with a Non-parametric Appearance Model
This paper presents a new method to segment abdominal aortic aneurysms from CT angiography scans. The outer contour of lumen and thrombus are delineated with independent 3D deformable models. First the lumen is segmented based on two user indicated positions, and then the resulting surface is used to initialize the automated thrombus segmentation method. For the lumen, the image-derived deforma...
