Variational Skinning of an Ordered Set of Discrete 2D Balls

Abstract: This is the accepted version of the paper.This version of the publication may differ from the final published version. Abstract. This paper considers the problem of computing an interpolating skin of a ordered set of discrete 2D balls. By construction, the skin is constrained to be C 1 continuous, and for each ball, it touches the ball at a point and is tangent to the ball at the point of contact. Using an energy formulation, we derive differential equations that are designed to minimize the skin's arc length,… Show more

“…The final positions of these points and tangents are obtained by the end of several iteration steps. (Slabaugh et al,2008)). For two-sided skin they constrain the points of contact to be separated by 180 degrees, but this way some of the points of contact may fall into other circles (middle figure).…”

“…This surface can then be used for visualization of the blood vessel, simulation of blood flows using computational fluid dynamics, as well as measurements such as volume or surface area. We note that the problem of 2D ball skinning was addressed in our previous work [8]; in this paper, we extend the methodology to skinning 3D balls. In this case, the problem has a similar conceptual formulation based on differential equations; however, the geometry is notably different: instead of minimizing the arc length and curvature of a curve, we minimize the surface area and mean curvature of a surface.…”
