In this paper, we propose a texture map compression method based on the hierarchical coding method of SHVC to support the scalability function of dynamic mesh compression. The proposed method effectively eliminates the redundancy of multiple-resolution texture maps by downsampling a high-resolution texture map to generate multiple-resolution texture maps and encoding them with SHVC. The dynamic mesh decoder supports the scalability of mesh data by decoding a texture map having an appropriate resolution according to receiver performance and network environment. To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the proposed method is applied to V-DMC (Video-based Dynamic Mesh Coding) reference software, TMMv1.0, and the performance of the scalable encoder/decoder proposed in this paper and TMMv1.0-based simulcast method is compared. As a result of experiments, the proposed method effectively improves in performance the average of -7.7% and -5.7% in terms of point cloud-based BD-rate (Luma PSNR) in AI and LD conditions compared to the simulcast method, confirming that it is possible to effectively support the texture map scalability of dynamic mesh data through the proposed method.

This study observed the effects of auxetic mesh reinforcement in concrete on the mechanical characteristics under compression. Series of double arrow type 2-D auxetic mesh were manufactured and embedded into concrete specimens. Compression tests were performed and results showed that the application of auxetic mesh as concrete reinforcement can restrain the deformation of concrete resulting in the enhancement of stiffness of composites.

Previous works related to texture coordinate coding of the three-dimensional(3-D) mesh models employed the same predictor as the geometry coder. However, discontinuities in the texture coordinates cause unreasonable prediction. Especially, discontinuities become more serious for the 3-D mesh model with a non-atlas texture image. In this paper, we propose a new coding scheme to remove discontinuities in the texture coordinates by reallocating texture segments according to a coding order. Experiment results show that the proposed coding scheme outperforms the MPEG-4 3DMC standard in terms of compression efficiency. The proposed scheme not only overcome the discontinuity problem by regenerating a texture image, but also improve coding efficiency of texture coordinate compression.

삼각형 메쉬(triangular mesh)로 이루어진 삼차원 영상의 큰 데이터량을 줄이기 위한 메쉬 부호화의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그리고, 최근에는 삼차원 부호화 데이터의 네트워크 전송 문제가 대두되어, 점진적 부호화(proressive mesh compression)에 대한 알고리듬들도 제안되고 있다. 본 논문은 꼭지점의 위치 정보 및 간략화 과정의 꼭지점 패턴(vertex pattern) 규칙을 이용하여, 기존의 점진적 부호화 알고리듬의 부호화 성능을 개선한 알고리듬을 제안한다. 꼭지점의 위치 정보를 이용하여 기존의 알고리듬에 비해 낮은 엔트로피(entropy)를 얻었으며, 꼭지점 패턴 정보를 이용하여 복원시 분할 꼭지점(split vertex)의 탐색 범위를 한정하였다. 전산 모의 실험을 통해, 제안하는 알고리듬이 기존의 점진적 메쉬 부호화 연구에 비해, 연결 정보 부호화에서 대략 30%정도 향상된 부호화 성능을 가짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

Transmission of 3D shape model through Internet has become one of the hottest issues in these days. Presented in this paper is a new approach for the rapid transmission of the geometry data of the shape model. By analyzing the important three factors, the shape fidelity, the file size, and the decompression time, for the compression, we point out the potential problems of previous approaches of using the deltas between consecutive vertices and propose an alternative of directly using the position values of vertices of the model. It turns out that the proposed approach has smaller file size, has lesser distortion in the model, and the decompression is faster.

Most of the 3D object reconstruction techniques divide the object into multiplane and approximate the surfaces of the object. The Marching Cubes Algorithm which initializes the mesh structure using a given isovalue. and Delaunay Tetrahedrisation are widely used. Deformable models are well-suited for general object reconstruction because they make little assumptions about the shape to recover and they can reconstruct objects *om various types of datasets. Now, many researchers are studying the reconstruction systems based on a deformable model. In this paper, we propose a novel method for reconstruction of 3D objects. This method, for a 3D object composed of curved planes, compresses the 3D object based on the adaptive simplexmesh technique. It changes the pre-defined mesh structure, so that it may approach to the original object. Also, we redefine the geometric characteristics such as curvatures. As results of simulations, we show reconstruction of the original object with high compression and concentration of vertices towards parts of high curvature in order to optimize the shape description.

With the developing of current multimedia broadcasting, user will be provided for lots of various content through the various channel and media. Content provider and consumer want the various service using content with the better quality which is fit to users' preference. For transmitting this content in the limited transmission channel capacity, it needs to transmit the highly compressed content. The content of 3D mesh model-based on MPEG-4 enables the various content service that provides the lower size and the resonable quality, and Personalize(Targeting) service just provide the contents that user more wants and likes. This paper presents the study on the targeting service using compression of 3D mesh model-based on MPEG-4 and the adaptation of Embedded Graphic application program using it.

Recently, the continuous fiber materials has become more important materials to repair and to reinforce concrete structural members. Continuous fiber meshes are effective for shear and confining reinforcement and provide excellent durability when combined with high strength mortar The purpose of this study is to verify the relationship between concrete strength and the ductility of inner concrete confined laterally by continuous fiber meshes. For this study, Experimental studies were conducted by compressive members using the cast frame of high strength mortar and continuous fiber meshes. Therefore, the result shows that compressive strength and ductility has improved according to the amount of the fiber meshes, and that the lateral confined effect of members with 3- or 4-axis mesh arrangement is bigger than that of members with 2-axis mesh. These data have to be used to verify the characteristic of concrete structure members reinforced continuous fiber mesh.

Feature detection is important in various mesh processing techniques, such as mesh editing, mesh morphing, mesh compression, and mesh signal processing. In this paper, we propose a geometric snake as an interactive tool for feature detection on a 3D triangular mesh. A geometric snake is an extension of an image snake, which is an active contour model that slithers from its initial position specified by the user to a nearby feature while minimizing an energy functional. To constrain the movement of a geometric snake onto the surface of a mesh, we use the parameterization of the surrounding region of a geometric snake. Although the definition of a feature may vary among applications, we use the normal changes of faces to detect features on a mesh.

Unreinforced masonry (URM) buildings are extensively adopted in many of the growing nations, particularly in India. Window or door openings are required for architectural or functional reasons, which pose a threat to the building's safety. The past earthquakes have shown that the seismic capability of these structures was very weak. Strengthening these unreinforced masonry walls using welded wire mesh (WWM) is one of the most commonly and economical methods. The present experimental study investigates the impact of openings on the shear behaviour of URM walls and the effectiveness of WWM in enhancing the shear performance of masonry wall. In the experimental program 16 specimens were cast, 8 unstrengthen and 8 strengthened specimens, under 8 unstrengthen and strengthened specimens, every 2 specimens had 0%, 5%, 10%, and 15% openings and all these walls were tested under diagonal compression. The results show that the shear carrying capacity reduces as the opening percentage increases. However, strengthening the URM specimens using WWM significantly improves the peak load, shear strength, ductility, stiffness, and energy dissipation. Furthermore, the strengthening of the URM walls using WWM compensated the loss of wall capacity caused by the presence of the openings.
