Abstract. This paper focuses on an important aspect of cardiac surgical simulation, which is the deformation of mesh models to form smooth joins between them. A novel algorithm bas...
— One of the major drawbacks of the Hopfield network is that when it is applied to certain polytopes of combinatorial problems, such as the traveling salesman problem (TSP), the...
Real defects (e.g. stuck-at or bridging faults) in the VLSI circuits cause intermediate voltages and can not be modeled as ideal shorts. In this paper we first show that the trad...
Abstract. We have developped a physically-based model where an object is represented by a set of mass points on its contour. Each object may be defined locally and physically usin...
This paper presents a system for modeling lichens and simulating their propagation and growth in a virtual scene. Lichens colonize almost every substrate in nature and play an imp...
