چکیده

We present a method for generating surface crack patterns that appear in materials such as mud, ceramic glaze, and glass. To model these phenomena, we build upon existing physically based methods. Our algorithm generates cracks from a stress field defined heuristically over a triangle discretization of the surface. The simulation produces cracks by evolving this field over time. The user can control the characteristics and appearance of the cracks using a set of simple parameters. By changing these parameters, we have generated examples similar to a variety of crack patterns found in the real world. We assess the realism of our results by comparison with photographs of realworld examples. Using a physically based approach also enables us to generate animations similar to time-lapse photography.

Estimation of soil cracking and the effect on surface runoff in a Texas Blackland Prairie watershed

Seasonal cracking of the soil matrix results in poor estimates of runoff and infiltration by simulation models due to the changing soil storage conditions. In this study, soil surface elevation changes were measured every two weeks and soil crack volume was calculated for a two-year period at the USDA-Agricultural Research Service, Riesel Y-2 watershed in central Texas. Soil anchors were placed...

Effect of Stress Gradient at the Vicinity of a Crack Tip on Ionic Diffusion in Silicate Glasses: an Afm Study

The slow advance of a crack in sodo-silicate glasses was studied at nanometer scale by in-situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) in a well-controlled atmosphere (N2 and H2O). An enhanced diffusion of sodium ions in the stress-gradient field at the sub-micrometric vicinity of the crack tip was revealed through several effects: growth of nodules in height images, changes in the AFM tip– sample energy...

Adjunct Hexagonal Array Token Petri Nets and Hexagonal Picture Languages

Adjunct Hexagonal Array Token Petri Net Structures (AHPN) are recently introduced hexagonal picture generating devices which extended the Hexagonal Array Token Petri Net Structures . In this paper we consider AHPN model along with a control feature called inhibitor arcs and compare it with some expressive hexagonal picture generating and recognizing models with respect to the generating power.
