Smooth Irregular Mesh Interpolation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The construction of a smooth surface from an irregular mesh in space is considered. The mesh vertices can either be interpolated or approximated as a control net. A collection of triangular B6zier patches results from a local, affine invariant and visually smooth interpolation scheme that can represent surfaces of arbitrary topological type. It is based on a domain 4-split. Beside the surface construction scheme, the optimal employment of the numerous degrees of freedom is crucial for an overall pleasing shape. Different local minimum norm criteria are tested to see if they produce satisfactory shapes.

Polynomial Surfaces Interpolating Arbitrary Triangulations
Triangular Bézier patches are an important tool for defining smooth surfaces over arbitrary triangular meshes. The previously introduced 4-split method interpolates the vertices of a 2-manifold triangle mesh by a set of tangent plane continuous triangular Bézier patches of degree five. The resulting surface has an explicit closed form representation and is defined locally. In this paper, we int...
متن کاملLocalizing the 4-Split Method for G1 Free-Form Surface Fitting
One common technique for modeling closed surfaces of arbitrary topological type is to de ne them by piecewise parametric triangular patches on an irregular mesh. This surface mesh serves as a control mesh which is either interpolated or approximated. A new method for smooth triangular mesh interpolation has been developed. It is based on a regular 4-split of the domain triangles in order to sol...
متن کاملSmooth parametric surfaces retrieval from triangular meshes using RBFs
Quality of physically-based simulation mostly relies upon qualities of the geometrical model of the entities involved. Particularly, Lagrangian formalism (which we focus on since several years) claims for continuous and smooth descriptors. Our current project aims a precise Lagrangian knee kinematics model. The studied knee model has been chosen as built up from actual bones geometries and liga...
متن کاملSilhouette Smoothing by Boundary Curve Interpolation
Conspicuous and visually unpleasant polygonal silhouettes are often produced when rendering a polyhedral approximation (i.e. a polygonal mesh) of a smooth surface model, regardless whatever shading method is used to improve the appearance of the interior region. We present in this paper a technique for displaying a coarse polygonal mesh with smooth silhouette. Unlike other existing methods that...
متن کاملVisualization of Polygon-based Data as a Continuous Surface
Most information for spatial analysis and research in economic and social geography is aggregated into totals associated with units which are polygons. To facilitate comparisons between the units the totals are normalized by a reference variable, such as the area of the polygon. Such kind of data is usually visualized as 2D or 3D choropleth maps, but an alternative is a continuous surface. The ...
