Piecewise smooth subdivision surfaces with normal control
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we introduce improved rules for Catmull-Clark and Loop subdivision that overcome several problems with the original schemes (lack of smoothness at extraordinary boundary vertices, folds near concave corners). In addition, our approach to rule modification allows generation of surfaces with prescribed normals, both on the boundary and in the interior, which considerably improves control of the shape of surfaces.

A Degree Estimate for PolynomialSubdivision Surfaces of Higher RegularitybyUlrich
Subdivision algorithms can be used to construct smooth surfaces from control meshes of arbitrary topological structure. However, in contrast to tangent plane continuity, which is well understood, very little is known about the generation of subdivision surfaces of higher regularity. This work presents an estimate for piecewise polynomial subdivision surfaces by pointing out that curvature conti...
متن کاملSurface interpolation of meshes by geometric subdivision
Subdivision surfaces are generated by repeated approximation or interpolation from initial control meshes. In this paper two new nonlinear subdivision schemes, face based subdivision scheme and normal based subdivision scheme, are introduced for surface interpolation of triangular meshes. With a given coarse mesh more and more details will be added to the surface when the triangles have been sp...
متن کاملHierarchical Editing and Rendering of Subdivision Surfaces
We describe a system for hierarchical editing of subdivision surfaces based on direct manipulation of control points on the surface. As an improvement over spline-based hierarchical editing, our system is capable of naturally designing piecewise smooth surfaces over arbitrary topological types. Our system is able to naturally model sharp features, and eases the burden of understanding the math ...
متن کاملSpline surfaces with T-junctions
This paper develops a new way to create smooth piecewise polynomial free-form spline surfaces from quadmeshes that include T-junctions, where surface strips start or terminate. All mesh nodes can be interpreted as control points of geometrically-smooth, piecewise polynomials that we call GT-splines. GT-splines are B-spline-like and cover T-junctions by two or four patches of degree bi-4. They c...
متن کاملCompression for Smooth Shape Analysis
Most 3D shape analysis methods use triangular meshes to discretize both the shape and functions on it as piecewise linear functions. With this representation, shape analysis requires fine meshes to represent smooth shapes and geometric operators like normals, curvatures, or LaplaceBeltrami eigenfunctions at large computational and memory costs. We avoid this bottleneck with a compression techni...
