In May 2021, the M/V X-Press Pearl container ship burned for 2 weeks, leading to largest maritime spill of resin pellets (nurdles). The disaster was exacerbated by leakage other cargo and ship’s underway fuel. This affords unique opportunity study a time-stamped, geolocated release plastic under real-world conditions. Field samples collected from beaches in Sri Lanka nearest comprised nurdles e...

そこで本研究では、FFD の格子を自動生成し、オリジ ナルの FFD の柔軟性を保ちつつ、ユーザによる 3 次元 モデルの変形を支援する手法を提案する。我々の手法 は、まずモデルのバウンディングボックスを生成し、 それを初期格子とする。その初期格子から階層的に新 たな格子を生成することで、多重解像度格子という格 子集合を作り出し、ユーザがその中から目的に沿った 適切な格子、すなわち大域的な変形のための少数の制 御点を持つ格子や、局所的な変形のための変形対象領 域の形状をよく近似する格子を選択できるようにする。 さらに、変形前の格子だけでなく、ユーザによって変 形された格子から新たな格子の生成を行うことで、階 層的変形を行うことができる。階層的変形を用いるこ とで、格子をバウンディングボックスから再定義する ことなく、大域的な変形から局所的な変形、またはそ の逆といったようにモデルを階...

In this work, we show that the eigenvalues of the problem  (∆2 + V (x) + λ)u(x) = 0 x ∈ Ω u(x) = ∆u(x) = 0 x ∈ ∂Ω are generically simple in the set of C4 regular regions of Rn, n ≥ 2. In fact, we prove that there exists a residual set of regions C4 diffeomorphic to a given Ω such that all the eigenvalues for a supported plate equation are simple.

With the increasing complexity of photo-realistic scenes, the question of building and placing objects in three-dimensional scenes is becoming ever more di cult. While the question of placement of rigid objects has captured the attention of researchers in the past, this work presents an intuitive and interactive scheme to properly place deformable objects with the aid of free-form deformation t...

Given the set of square matrices M ⊂ Mn+m(C) that keep the subspace W = Cnx{0} ⊂ C invariant, we obtain the implicit form of a miniversal deformation of a matrix a ∈ M, and we compute it explicitely when this matrix is marked (this is, if there is a permutation matrix p ∈ Mn+m(C) such that p−1ap is a Jordan matrix). We derive some applications to tackle the classical Carlson problem.

Non-geometric string backgrounds were proposed to be related to a nonassociative deformation of the space-time geometry. In the flux formulation of double field theory (DFT), the structure of mathematically possible non-associative deformations is analyzed in detail. It is argued that on-shell there should not be any violation of associativity in the effective DFT action. For imposing either th...

Fuzzy functional dependency (FFD) is a kind of semantic knowledge and can be discovered from a large volume of business data. Sectional FFD and Attribute FFD are discussed so as to reflect semantics of the business world and express useful information that is natural for people to comprehend. The experimental results on an insurance data set show that the proposed method can extract knowledge e...

This paper presents a method for effectively modeling the outer surfaces of inlay/onlay prostheses restoring teeth that are partially destroyed. We exploit 3D mesh deformation techniques: direct manipulation free-form deformation (DMFFD) [9] and multiple wires deformation (MWD) [10] with three kinds of information: standard teeth models, scanned mesh data from the plaster cast of a patient's to...
