Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.

A Compact Algorithm for Applying Periodic Boundary Conditions in 3D RVE Modeling with Abaqus
ABSTRACT Periodic boundary conditions (PBCs) are essential in multiscale modeling for computing the effective properties of heterogeneous materials via representative volume elements (RVEs). While several automated solutions have been developed for implementing PBCs in finite element software, many rely on structured node classification and predefined ...

Two Scale FE‐FFT‐Based Modeling of Cancellous Bone
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis is characterized by a loss of volume percentage of cortical bone, which reduces the loading capacity of this organ and increases its likelihood for fractures. The disease has the highest prevalence of any bone disease worldwide, with a particularly high incidence among the elderly.

On MAP Estimates and Source Conditions for Drift Identification in SDEs
ABSTRACT We consider the inverse problem of identifying the drift in an stochastic differential equation (SDE) from n$n$ observations of its solution at M+1$M+1$ distinct time points. We derive a corresponding maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate, we prove differentiability properties as well as a so‐called tangential cone condition for the forward ...

As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used

This study investigates the impact of uncertain parameters on Navier–Stokes equations coupled with heat transfer using the Intrusive Polynomial Chaos Method (IPCM). Sensitivity equations are formulated for key input parameters, such as viscosity and thermal diffusivity, and solved numerically using the Finite Element‐Volume method.
