Quadrilateral meshes with high level structure and feature preserving property benefit industrial applications the most. Generation of such quad mesh remains a challenge. Quad meshes generated using surface foliation have the highest level structure, however they lack of the feature preserving ability. In this paper, we analyze the boundary curvature with Gauss-Bonnet theorem to determine whether a boundary rectangle corner preserving foliation based method exists. When it exists, we adopt a modified double cover technique together with surface foliation method to generate a corner feature preserving quad mesh. The experiments demonstrate the efficacy of our algorithm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
