  • This paper proposes a method for generating low-level geometric models with retaining salient features during decimation. Our method employs feature extraction technique for extracting feature lines defined via curvature derivatives on the model (we divide features into ridges and valleys). We add the extraction method to simplification technique (Feature Quadric Error Metric) for making coarse model with features. This paper clearly shows that experimental results have better quality and smaller geometric error than previous methods.

  • An area light source in the three dimensional space shines past a scene polygon, to generate two types of shadow volumes for each scene polygon, i.e., one with partial occlusion and the other with the complete occlusion. These are called, penumbra and umbra, respectively. In this paper, consider the problem for computing the umbra of a convex polygon from convex quadric light sources such as circles, ellipses, spheres, ellipsoids and cylinders. First, we give characteristics of the boundary surfaces of the umbra and then propose an algorithm for generating the umbra using them.

  • We study the existence of surjective morphisms between Fano manifolds of Picard number 1, when the source is given by the intersection of a cubic hypersurface and either a quadric or another cubic hypersurface in a projective space.

  • In this paper, we present an approach that is able to reconstruct 3 dimensional metric models from un-calibrated images acquired by a freely moved camera system. If nothing is known of the calibration of either camera, nor the arrangement of one camera which respect to the other, then the projective reconstruction will have projective distortion which expressed by an arbitrary projective transformation. The distortion on the reconstruction is removed from projection to metric through self-calibration. The self-calibration requires no information about the camera matrices, or information about the scene geometry. Self-calibration is the process of determining internal camera parameters directly from multiply un-calibrated images. Self-calibration avoids the onerous task of calibrating cameras which needs to use special calibration objects. The root of the method is setting a uniquely fixed conic(absolute quadric) in 3D space. And it can make possible to figure out some way from the images. Once absolute quadric is identified, the metric geometry can be computed. We compared reconstruction image from calibrated images with the result by self-calibration method.

  • The pointwise equilibrium polynomial (PEP) element considering local second-order effect has been widely used in direct analysis of many practical engineering structures. However, it was derived according to Euler-Bernoulli beam theory and therefore it cannot consider shear deformation, which may lead to inaccurate prediction for deep beams. In this paper, a novel beam-column element based on Timoshenko beam theory is proposed to overcome the drawback of PEP element. A fifth-order polynomial is adopted for the lateral deflection of the proposed element, while a quadric shear strain field based on equilibrium equation is assumed for transverse shear deformation. Further, an additional quadric function is adopted in this new element to account for member initial geometrical imperfection. In conjunction with a reliable and effective three-dimensional (3D) co-rotational technique, the proposed element can consider both member initial imperfection and transverse shear deformation for second-order direct analysis of frame structures. Some benchmark problems are provided to demonstrate the accuracy and high performance of the proposed element. The significant adverse influence on structural behaviors due to shear deformation and initial imperfection is also discussed.

  • We estimated various neuron functions to construct of engineering neurons, which are the combination of sigmoid, linear, sine, quadric, double/single bended, soft max/minimum functions. These combinations are estimated by the property on the potential surface between the learning points, calculation speed, and learning convergence; because the surface depends on the inference ability of a neuron system; and speed and convergence are depend on the efficiency on the points of engineering applications. After the evaluating discussions, we can select more appropriate combination than original sigmoid function´s, which is single bended function and linear one. The combination ...
