This survey reviews the recent advances in linear variational mesh deformation techniques.
These methods were developed for editing detailed high-resolution meshes like those …

The mechanics of airflow in the human nasal airways is reviewed, drawing on the findings of
experimental and computational model studies. Modelling inevitably requires simplifications …

In this paper, we develop methods to rapidly remove rough features from irregularly
triangulated data intended to portray a smooth surface. The main task is to remove …

Modeling tasks, such as surface deformation and editing, can be analyzed by observing the
local behavior of the surface. We argue that defining a modeling operation by asking for …

Surface editing operations commonly require geometric details of the surface to be
preserved as much as possible. We argue that geometric detail is an intrinsic property of a …

We introduce, analyze and quantitatively compare a number of surface simplification
methods for point-sampled geometry. We have implemented incremental and hierarchical …

Many computer graphics applications require high-intensity numerical simulation. We show
that such computations can be performed efficiently on the GPU, which we regard as a full …

Research over the last decade has built a solid mathematical foundation for representation
and analysis of 3D meshes in graphics and geometric modeling. Much of this work however …

We present an algorithm that generates natural and intuitive deformations via direct
manipulation for a wide range of shape representations and editing scenarios. Our method …
