Using polyhedral models to automatically sketch idealized geometry for structural analysis.

Simplification of polyhedral models, which may incorporate large numbers of faces and nodes, is often required to reduce their amount of data, to allow their efficient manipulation, and to speed up computation. Such a simplification process must be adapted to the use of the resulting polyhedral mode…

Outils de base pour l'extraction de caractéristiques de surfaces numérisées.

La construction d'une surface paramétrique à partir de données issues de la numérisation d'un objet réel est une étape longue et fastidieuse pour l'utilisateur. La difficulté principale de ce processus réside dans la décomposition de la surface de l'objet en carreaux comportant, de préférence, quatr…

Shape preserving polyhedral simplification with bounded error.

A new approach is introduced to reduce the number of nodes of a polyhedral model according to several conditions which allow to produce high quality simpli®ed geometries. The simpli®ed polyhedron must satisfy everywhere a geometric restoration criterion based on an error zone assigned to each node o…
