Implicit surfaces (IS) are commonly used in image creation, modeling environments,
modeling objects, and scientific data visualization. In this article, we present a survey of …

Implicit surfaces offer special effects animators, graphic designers, CAD engineers, graphics
students, and hobbyists a new range of capabilities for the modeling of complex geometric …

We present new techniques for generation of unstructured meshes for geometries specified
by implicit functions. An initial mesh is iteratively improved by solving for a force equilibrium …

This paper presents a hybrid model for animation of soft inelastic substance which undergo
topological changes, eg separation and fusion and which fit with the objects they are in …

Die generative Modellierung ist ein alternativer Ansatz zur Beschreibung von
dreidimensionaler Form. Zugrunde liegt die Idee, ein Modell nicht wie üblich durch eine …

We describe tools that use measurements from video for the extraction of facial modeling
and animation parameters, head tracking, and real time interactive facial animation. These …

Morse theory shows how the topology of an implicit surface is affected by its function's critical
points, whereas catastrophe theory shows how these critical points behave as the function's …

The paper presents a general approach for designing and animating complex deformable
models with implicit surfaces. Implicit surfaces are introduced as an extra layer coating any …

Implicit surfaces appear in many applications, including medical imaging, molecular
modeling, computer aided design, computer graphics and finite element analysis. Despite …

This paper presents several improvements to the marching triangles algorithm for general
implicit surfaces. The original method generates equilateral triangles of constant size almost …
