体积平方度量下的特征保持网格简化方法

提出了一种基于体积平方度量的三角形折叠网格简化新方法.新方法通过极小化误差目标函数简化三角形网格.简化误差定义为三角形简化后产生的网格模型平方体积变化,并以三角形几何形状因子和法向因子作为约束.简化误差的表示形式为一个二次目标函数,因此,每次简化后三角形网格的新顶点是一个线性问题的解.与目前简化效率最好的QEM方法相比,新方法不增加算法复杂度.如果被简化的三角形是强特征三角形,则用其高斯曲率最大的顶点作为新顶点,以保持原始模型的细节特征;对于非强特征三角形,新顶点用极小化折叠误差确定.对于边界三角形,新顶点的位置由不同于内部三角形的方法进行计算,保持了网格的边界特征.最后用实例说明新方法的有效性.

Constructing hierarchies for triangle meshes

We present a method to produce a hierarchy of triangle meshes that can be used to blend different levels of detail in a smooth fashion. The algorithm produces a sequence of meshes M₀, M₁, M ₂..., M_n, where each mesh M_i can be transformed to mesh M_i+1 through a set of triangle-collapse operations. For each triangle, a function is generated that approximates the underlying surface in the area of the triangle, and this function serves as a basis for assigning a weight to the triangle in the ordering operation and for supplying the points to which the triangles are collapsed. The algorithm produces a limited number of intermediate meshes by selecting, at each step, a number of triangles that can be collapsed simultaneously. This technique allows us to view a triangulated surface model at varying levels of detail while insuring that the simplified mesh approximates the original surface well     

Material-Discontinuity Preserving Progressive Mesh Using Vertex-Collapsing Simplification

Level Of Detail (LOD) modelling or mesh reduction has been found useful in interactive walkthrough applications. Progressive meshing techniques based on edge or triangle collapsing have been recognised useful in continuous LOD, progressive refinement, and progressive transmission. We present a vertex-collapsing mesh reduction scheme that effectively takes shape and feature preserving as well as material-discontinuity preserving into account, and produces a progressive mesh which generally has more vertices collapsed between adjacent levels of detail than methods based on edge-collapsing and triangle collapsing.     

Efficient implementation of real-time view-dependent multiresolution meshing

In this paper, we present an efficient (topology preserving) multiresolution meshing framework for interactive level-of-detail (LOD) generation and rendering of large triangle meshes. More specifically, the presented approach, called FastMesh, provides view-dependent LOD generation and real-time mesh simplification that minimizes visual artifacts. Multiresolution triangle mesh representations are an important tool for reducing triangle mesh complexity in interactive rendering environments. Ideally, for interactive visualization, a triangle mesh is simplified to the maximal tolerated visible error and, thus, mesh simplification is view-dependent. This paper introduces an efficient hierarchical multiresolution triangulation framework based on a half-edge triangle mesh data structure and presents optimized implementations of several view-dependent or visual mesh simplification heuristics within that framework. Despite being optimized for performance, these error heuristics provide conservative error bounds. The presented framework is highly efficient both in space and time cost and needs only a fraction of the time required for rendering to perform the error calculations and dynamic mesh updates.     

Adaptive remeshing process with quadrangular finite elements

Since the quality of FEM analysis directly depends on the quality of meshes, various mesh adaptation schemes have been researched. There are two stages on adaptive finite element analysis; to derive error measure and to control meshes based on error measure. The former has been well researched among applied mathematicians. However, the importance of the latter aspect wasn't considered enough. Even if the error measures were well estimated, the total performance of mesh adaptation might be poor with a poor mesh control. This paper proposes an effective mesh control scheme for h-adaptation, or adaptive remeshing scheme with the explicit relation between interpolation theory based on error measure and desirable mesh size. Total mesh adaptation is controlled by introducing Quality Index, or the ratio between the total error norm and the total energy norm which represents the quality of the total meshes; specifying the desirable value of Quality Index, then the adaptive remeshing process can handle it and Quality Index is almost converged to the given value. Since the full automatic feature of the mesh generator is a prerequisite for adaptive remeshing, the author also discusses the algorithm of the quadrangular mesh generator for arbitrary domains. After evaluation on a linear problem, it's confirmed that the proposed mesh control scheme and the proposed error measure-mesh size relations are acceptable. The incompatible case for mesh adaptation is also discussed in this paper.

Mean Curvature Skeletons

Inspired by recent developments in contraction‐based curve skeleton extraction, we formulate the skeletonization problem via mean curvature flow (MCF). While the classical application of MCF is surface fairing, we take advantage of its area‐minimizing characteristic to drive the curvature flow towards the extreme so as to collapse the input mesh geometry and obtain a skeletal structure. By analyzing the differential characteristics of the flow, we reveal that MCF locally increases shape anisotropy. This justifies the use of curvature motion for skeleton computation, and leads to the generation of what we call “mean curvature skeletons”. To obtain a stable and efficient discretization, we regularize the surface mesh by performing local remeshing via edge splits and collapses. Simplifying mesh connectivity throughout the motion leads to more efficient computation and avoids numerical instability arising from degeneracies in the triangulation. In addition, the detection of collapsed geometry is facilitated by working with simplified mesh connectivity and monitoring potential non‐manifold edge collapses. With topology simplified throughout the flow, minimal post‐processing is required to convert the collapsed geometry to a curve. Formulating skeletonization via MCF allows us to incorporate external energy terms easily, resulting in a constrained flow. We define one such energy term using the Voronoi medial skeleton and obtain a medially centred curve skeleton. We call the intermediate results of our skeletonization motion meso‐skeletons; these consist of a mixture of curves and surface sheets as appropriate to the local 3D geometry they capture.     

基于支撑域的网格简化算法

提出一种基于2次误差测度（QEM）的网格简化改进算法。算法首先对折叠边所产生的新顶点定义其在初始网格上的简化支撑域,从而建立新顶点与初始网格之间的联系;然后计算新顶点到支撑域的2次距离误差作为该顶点的全局简化误差,并将原始QEM中的误差作为局部简化误差;最后将两个误差之和作为新的折叠代价目标函数以实现对原有QEM算法的改进。多个模型的简化实验表明,改进算法能较好地保留初始网格的细节特征,并且较为明显地降低简化误差。
