Paneling architectural freeform surfaces
The emergence of large-scale freeform shapes in architecture poses big challenges to the fabrication of such structures. A key problem is the approximation of the design surface b...

Skinning Characters using Surface Oriented Free-Form Deformations
Skinning geometry effectively continues to be one of the more challenging and time consuming aspects of character setup. While anatomic and physically based approaches to skinning...

Geodesic patterns
Geodesic curves in surfaces are not only minimizers of distance, but they are also the curves of zero geodesic (sideways) curvature. It turns out that this property makes patterns...

Designing Quad-dominant Meshes with Planar Faces
We study the combined problem of approximating a surface by a quad mesh (or quad-dominant mesh) which on the one hand has planar faces, and which on the other hand is aestheticall...

Surface reconstruction of freeform objects based on multiresolution volumetric method
3D scanners developed over the past several decades have facilitated the reconstruction of complicated engineering parts. Typically the boundary representation of a part is recons...
