Axioms and variational problems in surface parameterization
For a surface patch on a smooth, two-dimensional surface in IR3 , low-distortion parameterizations are described in terms of minimizers of suitable energy functionals. Appropriate...

Adaptive Control Variates
Adaptive Monte Carlo methods are specialized Monte Carlo simulation techniques where the methods are adaptively tuned as the simulation progresses. The primary focus of such techn...

Optimal Trajectory Generation for Manipulator Robots under Thermal Constraints
We propose here to deal with the optimization of velocity profiles of manipulator robots with a minimum time criterion subject to thermal constraints. This paper deals with the r...

Efficient waypoint tracking hybrid controllers for double integrators using classical time optimal control
This paper is a response to requests from several respected colleagues in academia for a careful writeup of the classical time-optimal control based hybrid controllers that we have...

A Physics-Based Framework for Subdivision Surface Design with Automatic Rules Control
The recent non-uniform subdivision approach extends traditional uniform subdivision schemes with variable rules, offering additional shape parameters (such as knot spacings) for f...
