In this paper we introduce a new surface representation, the displaced subdivision surface. It represents a detailed surface model as a scalar-valued displacement over a smooth do...
Paper, sheet metal, and many other materials are approximately unstretchable. The surfaces obtained by bending these materials can be flattened onto a plane without stretching or ...
Convolution surface has the advantage of being crease-free and bulge-free over other kinds of implicit surfaces. Among the various types of skeletal elements, line segments can be...
— In human and animal running spring-like leg behavior is found, and similar concepts have been demonstrated by various robotic systems in the past. In general, a spring-mass mod...
