Enforcing a specific symmetry group on a curve, knotted or not, is not trivial using standard interpolations such as polygons or splines. For a prescribed symmetry group we present a symmetrization process based on a Fourier description of a knot. The pres ...
This research investigates new methods of designing folded plate structures that can be built with cross-laminated timber panels. Folded plate structures are attractive to both architects and engineers for their structural, spatial, and plastic qualities. ...
We propose two new fast algorithms for the computation of the continuous Fourier series and the continuous Haar transform of rectilinear polygons such as those of mask layouts in optical lithography. These algorithms outperform their discrete counterparts ...
We show that for any concave polygon that has no parallel sides and for any k, there is a k-fold covering of some point set by the translates of this polygon that cannot be decomposed into two coverings. Moreover, we give a complete classification of open ...
Let d(1) < d(2) < ... denote the set of all distances between two vertices of a convex n-gon. We show that the number of pairs of vertices at distance d(2) from one another is at most n + O(1). (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. ...
We show that for any open convex polygon P, there is a constant k(P) such that any k(P)-fold covering of the plane with translates of P can be decomposed into two coverings. ...
We consider the problem of estimating room geometry from the acoustic room impulse response (RIR). Existing approaches addressing this problem exploit the knowledge of multiple RIRs. In contrast, we are interested in reconstructing the room geometry from a ...

By a polygonization of a finite point set S in the plane we understand a simple polygon having S as the set of its vertices. Let B and R be sets of blue and red points, respectively, in the plane such that is in general position, and the convex hull of B c ...
We study two decomposition problems in combinatorial geometry. The first part of the thesis deals with the decomposition of multiple coverings of the plane. We say that a planar set is cover-decomposable if there is a constant m such that any m-fold coveri ...
This research proposes new methods to generate rapidly complex folded plate structures that can be built with cross laminated timber panels. Composition and dimensions of these panels as well as the possibility to mill them by Computer Numerically Controll ...
