ICEM AutoHexa is a high-speed, object-based, fully-automated, high-quality, body-fitted hexahedral mesher that can be used to create unstructured hexahedral meshes. The input to ICEM AutoHexa is a set of axis aligned blocks, rectangles, cylinders, discs, and triangular prisms. Associated to each object are meshing parameters that control the density of the mesh. Because the geometric coverage i...

Building energy models are a key element in regulatory compliance calculations. These performance calculations often do not accurately reflect actual operating conditions. Therefore, evaluation of comparing use building with the outcome dynamic simulation can be misleading, this difference is also known as gap. The reduction gap an important task aimed to provide confidence for efficiency. This...

The routing problem for shared path protection in multi-domain optical mesh networks is difficult due to the lack of complete and global knowledge on the network topology and bandwidth allocation. To overcome this difficulty, we propose an aggregated network modeling by overestimation with a two-step routing strategy. In the first step, a rough routing solution is sketched in a compact network ...

This paper examines the procedure of mesh adaptation on plane using the concept of an anisotropic metric. The metric is coupled with the curvature of the solution surface and it governs the process of mesh generation. The metric values are determined from the discrete data from the current simulation step and are stored in the background mesh with the appropriate interpolation procedure. If the...

desertification is one of the major issues threatening human communities. manymethods have been developed for assessment and mapping of desertification hazards. in thisresearch, multi-criteria evaluation method was used to investigate desertification process introuti watershed, golestan province, iran. at the first step, major desertification factors weredetermined by doing field surveys. they ...

The application of Wavelets to the Multi-resolution Analysis of surfaces provides an elegant, mathematically rigorous framework for the implementation of subdivision surfaces. We present a method similar to [Lou95] for multiresolution analysis of surfaces with subdivision connectivity. However, due to error incurred during surface remeshing (as with [EDD 95, LSS 98]) we find Wavelets an unsuita...

A bstract: We address in this paper the problem of reconstructing a mesh representation of plant cells in a complex, multi-layered tissue structure, based on segmented images obtained from confocal microscopy of shoot apical meristem of model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. The construction of such mesh structures for plant tissues is currently a missing step in the existing image analysis pipeline...
