Polygonization by the Edge Spinning

Edge spinning algorithm for implicit surfaces ✩

This paper presents a new fast method for polygonization of implicit surfaces. Our method put emphasis on the shape of triangles generated and on the polygonization speed. The main advantages of the triangulation presented are simplicity and the stable features that can be used for future expansion. The implementation is not complicated and only the standard data structures are used. This algor...

Curvature Dependent Polygonization by the Edge Spinning

An adaptive method for polygonization of implicit surfaces is presented. The method insists on the shape of triangles and the accuracy of resulting approximation as well. The presented algorithm is based on the surface tracking scheme and it is compared with the other algorithms based on the similar principle, such as the Marching cubes and the Marching triangles methods. The main advantages of...

Mesh Reduction Using an Angle Criterion Approach

Surface polygonization is the process by which a representative polygonal mesh of a surface is constructed for rendering or analysis purposes. This work presents a new surface polygonization algorithm specifically tailored to be applied to a large class of models which are created with parametric surfaces having triangular meshes. This method has particular application in the area of building v...
