In addition to glue-laminated timber, screw-laminated timber has increasingly been applied to rib shells. The ribs are made from laminated timber boards, which are joined together with the aid of pin-like fasteners such as screws or nails. The current rese ...
During the last 20 years, the joint expansion of computing power, computer graphics, networking capabilities and multiresolution analysis have stimulated several research domains, and developed the need for new types of data such as 3D models, i.e. discret ...
Existing algorithms for rendering Bezier curves and surfaces fall into two categories: iterative evaluation of the parametric equations (generally using forward differencing techniques) or recursive subdivision. In the latter case, all the algorithms rely ...
The extraction of planar sections from volume images is the most commonly used technique for inspecting and visualizing anatomic structures. We propose to generalize the concept of planar section to the extraction of curved cross-sections (free form surfac ...

We provide a new comparison between hexagonal and orthogonal lattices, based on approximation theory. For each of the lattices, we select the “natural” spline basis function as generator for a shift-invariant function space; i.e., the tensor-product B-spli ...
We extended Gross's method of volume wavelet rendering by computing splats via an orthogonal projection operator. The method decomposes the volume data into a wavelet pyramid representation in the spline domain. The splats of the basis functions are approx ...
Architectural ornament, the art of decorative patterning, is commonly perceived as an historical characteristic for architecture which declined in the beginning of the 20th century. The lecture of Adolf Loos in 1908 “Ornament and Crime” [1] can certainly b ...

We present new interaction and visualization paradigms relying on free form surfaces for studying and exploring human anatomy. We propose an interface for building three-dimensional anatomical scenes incorporating 3D anatomical organ models, freely orienta ...
