The fast identification of shadow regions due to area light sources is necessary for realistic rendering and for discontinuity meshing for global illumination. A new shadow-determ...
This paper describes a new method for generating surfaces of branching tubular structures with given centerlines and radii. As the centerlines are not straight lines, the cross-se...
Many algorithms have been proposed that create a path for a robot in an environment with obstacles. Most methods are aimed at finding a solution. However, for many applications, ...
Vector field analysis plays a crucial role in many engineering applications, such as weather prediction, tsunami and hurricane study, and airplane and automotive design. Existing ...
