An accelerated incremental radiosity algorithm

The incremental radiosity method has been shown to be an efficient technique for providing global illumination in dynamic environments as it exploits temporal coherence in object space.This paper presents an accelerated incremental radiosity algorithm,which is based on a dynamically followed partial matrix.This not only reduces the computation cost in determining incremental form-factors when the geometrical relationships between objects are constantly changing,but also simplifies the management of user interaction with comparatively little storage cost.     

Progressive Transmission of Vector Map Data over the World Wide Web

Within distributed computing environments, access to very large geospatial datasets often suffers from slow or unreliable network connections. To allow users to start working with a partially delivered dataset, progressive transmission methods are a viable solution. While incremental and progressive methods have been applied successfully to the transmission of raster images over the World Wide Web, and, in the form of prototypes, of triangular meshes, the transmission of vector map datasets has lacked a similar attention. This paper introduces a solution to the progressive transmission of vector map data that allows users to apply analytical GIS methods to partially transmitted data sets. The architecture follows a client-server model with multiple map representations at the server side, and a thin client that compiles transmitted increments into a topologically consistent format. This paper describes the concepts, develops an architecture, and discusses implementation concerns.

A Multiscale/stabilized Formulation of the Incompressible Navier–Stokes Equations for Moving Boundary Flows and Fluid–structure Interaction

This paper presents a multiscale/stabilized finite element formulation for the incompressible Navier–Stokes equations written in an Arbitrary Lagrangian–Eulerian (ALE) frame to model flow problems that involve moving and deforming meshes. The new formulation is derived based on the variational multiscale method proposed by Hughes (Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 127:387–401, 1995) and employed in Masud and Khurram in (Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 193:1997–2018, 2006); Masud and Khurram in (Comput Methods Appl Mech Eng 195:1750–1777, 2006) to study advection dominated transport phenomena. A significant feature of the formulation is that the structure of the stabilization terms and the definition of the stabilization tensor appear naturally via the solution of the sub-grid scale problem. A mesh moving technique is integrated in this formulation to accommodate the motion and deformation of the computational grid, and to map the moving boundaries in a rational way. Some benchmark problems are shown, and simulations of an elastic beam undergoing large amplitude periodic oscillations in a viscous fluid domain are presented.     

细节高度复杂表面模型的视点相关渐进传输

针对细节高度复杂模型的特点,提出一种视点相关的渐进传输方法.根据人的视觉特征,算法将模型表示为多分辨率的四边形参数面片和表面法向细节纹理.该算法利用法向映射提高传输和绘制的效率,然后随着视点的变化动态细化和传输当前视点下轮廓部分的参数面片信息,从而最大限度地减少了模型传输时面片的数量.参数面片的结构规则,面片之间关联性低,因此能够按任意顺序高效地传输,从而实现真正的视点相关传输,并可以采用有效的编码方法对其结构和几何信息进行压缩.实验结果表明了该算法的有效性,特别适合于表面细节复杂的表面模型的交互传输和绘制.     

MLS‐based variable‐node elements compatible with quadratic interpolation. Part I: formulation and application for non‐matching meshes

Two‐dimensional variable‐node elements compatible with quadratic interpolation are developed using the moving least‐square (MLS) approximation. The mapping from the parental domain to the physical element domain is implicitly obtained from MLS approximation, with the shape functions and their derivatives calculated and saved only at the numerical integration points. It is shown that the present MLS‐based variable‐node elements meet the patch test if a sufficiently large number of integration points are employed for numerical integration. The cantilever problem with non‐matching meshes is chosen to check the feasibility of the present MLS‐based variable‐node elements, and the result is compared with that from the lower‐order case compatible with linear interpolation.

Mechanism on progressive failure of a faulted rock slope due to slip-weakening

1 Introduction The damage or failure of faulted rock slope is a quite difficult problem in geotechni- cal engineering, and attention has been drawn from researchers for a long time. Apart from the toppling damage of steep slopes, most of the failure pattern of faulted rockslopes is shear-typed. The failure process of such a slope includes: initiation and devel- opment of a single micro-crack, breakthrough of two or more cracks, formation of fail- ure zones, and even shear damage in large scale…
