The increasing market trends of extremely low power operated handy applications like laptop, electronics gadgets etc requires microelectronic devices with low power consumption. It is obvious that the transistor dimensions continues to shrink and as require for more complex chips increases, power management of such deep sub-micron based chip is one of the major challenges in VLSI industry. The ...

Triangle three-dimensional meshes have been widely used to represent 3D objects in several applications. These meshes are usually surfaces that require a huge amount of resources when they are stored, processed or transmitted. Therefore, many algorithms proposing an efficient compression of these meshes have been developed since the early 1990s. In this paper we propose a lossless method that c...

ÐMany real-world polygonal surfaces contain topological singularities that represent a challenge for processes such as simplification, compression, and smoothing. We present an algorithm that removes singularities from nonmanifold sets of polygons to create manifold (optionally oriented) polygonal surfaces. We identify singular vertices and edges, multiply singular vertices, and cut through sin...

In this paper we give some characterizations of topological extreme amenability. Also we answer a question raised by Ling [5]. In particular we prove that if T is a Borel subset of a locally compact semigroup S such that M(S)* has a multiplicative topological left invariant mean then T is topological left lumpy if and only if there is a multiplicative topological left invariant mean M on M(S)* ...

geometric and material nonlinear behavior of slender webs in i-column girders having stocky flanges under the action of combined lateral and axial loads is investigated. interaction curves corresponding to the application of compressive and shear loads at buckling and ultimate stages for both web plates and column sections are plotted. in addition, the effects of flange and web slenderness rati...

High-throughput generation of new types of relational biological datasets is creating a demand for methods to provide insights into their complexity. Such networks are often too large to interpret visually and too complicated to be explained solely based on local topological properties. One way to try to make sense of such complex networks would be to transform them into discernable abstracts, ...

Dance as a complex expressive form of motion is able to convey emotion, meaning and social idiosyncrasies that opens channels for non-verbal communication, and promotes rich cross-modal interactions with music and the environment. As such, realistic dancing characters may incorporate crossmodal information and variability of the dance forms through compact representations that may describe the ...

We present a new model for the representation of n-dimensional multiresolution meshes. It provides a robust topological representation of arbitrary meshes that are combined in closely interlinked levels of resolution. The proposed combinatorial model is formalized through the mathematical model of combinatorial maps allowing us to give a general formulation, in any dimensions, of the topologica...

This paper describes a novel and unified approach for Reeb graph construction and simplification as well as constriction approximation on 3D polygonal meshes. The key idea of our algorithm is that discrete contours – curves carried by the edges of the mesh and approximating the continuous contours of a mapping function – encode both topological and geometrical shape characteristics. Firstly, me...
