Isotropic-Cholesteric Transition of a Weakly Chiral Elastomer Cylinder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
When a chiral isotropic elastomer is brought to low temperature cholesteric phase, the nematic degree of freedom tends to order and form a helix. Due to the nemato-elastic coupling, this also leads to elastic deformation of the polymer network that is ...

Development of Free-Form Assembly-Type Mold Production Technology Using 3D Printing Technology

open access: yesBuildings, 2023
Free-form molds are used for one-time curve configuration, and because they are produced through manpower, they have issues with reduced precision and the occurrence of errors.

Free Form Deformation Method Applied to Modeling and Design of Hypersonic Glide Vehicles

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2019
The aerodynamic shape of the hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) has become a research topic nowadays due to its excellent aerodynamic performances. Some limitations need to be reduced when the free-form deformation (FFD) method is applied to parametric ...

Growth and Deformation Simulation of Aluminum Bronze Grains Produced by Electron Beam Additive Manufacturing

open access: yesMetals, 2022
When working out 3D building-up modes, it is necessary to predict the material properties of the resulting products. For this purpose, the crystallography of aluminum bronze grains after electron beam melting has been studied by EBSD analysis methods. To

An Effective Mesh Deformation Approach for Hull Shape Design by Optimization

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
A method for the morphing of surface/volume meshes suitable to be used in hydrodynamic shape optimization is proposed. Built in the OpenFOAM environment, it relies on a Laplace equation that propagates the modifications of the surface boundaries ...

Free-form skeleton-driven mesh deformations

open access: yesProceedings of the eighth ACM symposium on Solid modeling and applications - SM '03, 2003
In this paper, we propose a new scheme for free-form skeleton-driven global mesh deformations. First a Voronoi-based skeletal mesh is extracted from a given original mesh. Next the skeletal mesh is modified by free-form deformations. Then a desired global shape deformation is obtained by reconstructing the shape corresponding to the deformed skeletal ...

Free-form solid modeling using deformations [PDF]

open access: yesComputers & Graphics, 1990
Abstract One of the most important problems of available solid modeling systems is that the range of shapes generated is limited. It is not easy to model objects with free-form surfaces in a conventional solid modeling system. Such objects can be defined arbitrarily, but then operations on them are not transparent and complications occur.

An inexact Newton-Krylov algorithm for constrained diffeomorphic image registration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We propose numerical algorithms for solving large deformation diffeomorphic image registration problems. We formulate the nonrigid image registration problem as a problem of optimal control.
