The Crystalline Algorithm for Computing Motion by Curvature
نویسندگان
چکیده
Motion by (weighted) mean curvature is a geometric evolution law for surfaces, representing steepest descent with respect to (anisotropic) surface energy. The crystalline algorithm is a numerical method for computing this motion. The main idea of this method is to solve the analogous evolution law for a crystalline surface energy which approximates the underlying smooth one. We have recently explored the nature of this method, demonstrating its convergence in some simple special cases. This paper summarizes our results.

Hyperbolic flow by mean curvature
A hyperbolic flow by mean curvature equation, l t #cv"i, for the evolution of interfaces is studied. Here v, i and l t are the normal velocity, curvature and normal acceleration of the interface. A crystalline algorithm is developed for the motion of closed convex polygonal curves; such curves may exhibit damped oscillations and their shape appears to rotate during the evolutionary process. The...
متن کاملConvergence of an Algorithm for the Anisotropic and Crystalline Mean Curvature Flow
We give a simple proof of convergence of the anisotropic variant of a well-known algorithm for mean curvature motion, introduced in 1992 by Merriman, Bence, and Osher. The algorithm consists in alternating the resolution of the (anisotropic) heat equation, with initial datum the characteristic function of the evolving set, and a thresholding at level 1/2.

Modem physics théories claim that the dynamics of interfaces between the two-phase is described by the évolution équations involving the curvature and various kinematic énergies. We consider the motion of spiral-shaped polygonal curves by its crystalline curvature, which deserves a mathematical model of real crystals.
