Volumes

Summary: We introduce a completely robust and fully automatic algorithm to produce a pure hexahedral mesh with a coarse global structure and high geometric quality. The effectiveness and robustness of our algorithm have been verified by batch processing a dataset of 194 hex-meshes without any parameter tweaking.

Summary: We propose a new method to make use of a scaffold structure to robustly compute globally bijective maps, both in 2D and 3D.

Summary: Most state-of-the-art approaches cannot reconstruct thin surface geometry correctly since front and back side interfere with each other. We present a two-step method that uses kernel-based techniques and excels especially on thin surfaces. We demonstrate our results on synthetic as well as real-world datasets.

Summary: 3D tensor fields have a wide range of applications such as texture and geometry synthesis as well as anisotropic noise. In this paper, we introduce a system for the design and control of 3D tensor fields, at the core of which is a set of topological editing operations.
