This paper presents an algorithm for generating the Medial Axis Transform(MAT) of 3D objects with free-form boundaries. The algorithm proposed uses the exact representation of the...
In this paper, the duality in differential form is developed between a 3D primal surface and its dual manifold formed by the surface's tangent planes, i.e., each tangent plan...
In this paper the notion of free form feature for aesthetic design is presented. The design of industrial products constituted by free form surfaces is done by using CAD systems r...
We are developing a novel sensing device named “3-dimensional capture sheet (3DCS)”. The cloth-like sheet measures its own 3D configuration. The sheet enables us to make a sof...
We present an efficient algorithm for preserving the total volume of a solids undergoing free-form deformation using discrete level-of-detail representations. Given the boundary r...
