A Control of Smooth Deformations with Topological Change on Polyhedral Mesh Based on Curves and Loops
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose a method to model and control topological changes by a smooth deformation of a polyhedral mesh using curves and loops. As changing the genus of a surface is not a continuous transformation, the topological change is made when an intermediate shape between the two topologies has been obtained. The creation and the deletion of holes are studied. The deletion of a hole uses non nullhomotopic loops to designate the hole to be deleted. A method computing two independent loops associated to a hole is presented.

Use of a Two-Channel Moiré Wavefront Sensor for Measuring Topological Charge Sign of the Vortex Beam and Investigation of Its Change Due to an Odd Number of Reflections
One of the solutions of the Helmholtz equation is the vortex beams. In the recent decades, production and applications of these types of beams have found serious attentions. Determination of the vortex beam topological charge and its sign are very important issues. Odd number of reflections of the vortex beam changes its vorticity. In this paper, we have used a q-plate to generate a vortex beam...
متن کاملAutomatic Generation of Structure Preserving MultiresolutionModels
We are proposing a multiresolution representation which uses a subdivision surface as a smooth base surface with respect to which a high resolution mesh is defined by normal displacement. While this basic representation is quite straightforward, our actual contribution lies in the automatic generation of such a representation. Given a high resolution mesh, our algorithm is designed to derive a ...

The Finite Element Method (FEM) has become an indispensable tool in computer graphics. Typical applications range from computer games, special effects and feature films to virtual surgery training simulators. In the field of geometric modeling, the FEM can help in creating realistic and physically plausible deformations with the user only having to specify a low number of constraints. Using the...
متن کاملAnalysis of Compatible Discrete Operator Schemes - for Elliptic Problems on Polyhedral Meshes
Compatible schemes localize degrees of freedom according to the physical nature of the underlying fields and operate a clear distinction between topological laws and closure relations. For elliptic problems, the cornerstone in the scheme design is the discrete Hodge operator linking gradients to fluxes by means of a dual mesh, while a structure-preserving discretization is employed for the grad...
متن کاملModelling Conceptual Neighbourhoods of Toplogical Line-Region Relations
Based on the 9-intersection for binary topological relations, two models of conceptual neighborhoods among topological relations between a line and a region are developed. The snapshot model derives the neighborhoods by comparing pairs of topological relations and selects neighbors based on least noticeable differences, whereas the smooth-transition model develops neighborhoods based on the kno...
