On Bending in the As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible Deformation Energy
Abstract The well‐established As‐Rigid‐As‐Possible (ARAP) energy has various forms. For surface deformation, commonly used energies contain an implicit bending penalty. We present a natural, continuous generalization that incorporates multiple ARAP versions with an implicit, user‐controllable bending penalty.

Abstract Precomputation and efficient approximate material models are well‐known approaches for achieving real‐time rendering with global illumination. Recent research in radiance fields and in particular 3D Gaussian Splatting has demonstrated the power of Gaussian primitives both to represent radiance and for fast optimization.

Abstract Cingulata, a major lineage of Xenarthra, comprises extinct and extant armoured placental mammals that diversified throughout the Cenozoic. Despite extensive study, phylogenetic hypotheses based on morphological and molecular data remain incongruent, and no total evidence analysis has been conducted. Here, we integrate the largest morphological

Abstract Over the past decades, climate change has emerged as a major threat to global biodiversity, negatively affecting the integrity and functioning of ecosystems and the benefits they provide to people. To mitigate these impacts, it is essential to identify climate refugia that support the persistence of the structure and function of reef ...
