A subdivision scheme for surfaces of revolution

Computer Aided Geometric Design, 2001
This paper describes a simple and efficient non-stationary subdivision scheme of order \(4.\) This curve scheme unifies known subdivision rules for cubic B-splines, splines-in-tension and a certain class of trigonometric splines capable of reproducing circles.

Ray Solutions on Surfaces of Revolution

Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1987
Our concern is the development of techniques for the analysis of wave propagation and general transient response of thin shells to local loading. In general, ray methods are useful for such problems. In the present work, the ray solutions are obtained for a shell of revolution with high prestress, for which the bending stiffness of the shell wall can ...

Surfaces of Revolution

2015
A surface of revolution is generated by rotation of a plane curve z = f(x) about an axis Oz called the axis of the surface of revolution. The resulting surface therefore always has azimuthal symmetry.

Eigenfunctions and Eigenvalues on Surfaces of Revolution

Results in Mathematics, 1990
Let M be a surface of revolution; M is topologically a sphere or torus. The rotation group O(2) acts on M by isometries and also on the eigenspaces E(\(\lambda)\) for the Laplacian D. Each irreducible representation of dimension 2 is characterized by a winding number \(k\in {\mathbb{N}}\).

SYMPLECTIC LOOK AT SURFACES OF REVOLUTION

2003
Given a surface of revolution in 3-space, there exist isothermal \(S^1\)-equivariant coordinates \((t,\theta)\) such that the metric is \(e^{\psi(t)}(dt^2+d\theta^2)\). Replacing \(t\) by the moment map \(\tau:=\int e^{\psi(t)}\,dt\) we get action angle coordinates \((\tau,\theta)\), and a function \(\phi(\tau)=e^{\psi(t)}\) called the momentum profile,

Computing planar sections of surfaces of revolution with revolute quadric decomposition

Proceedings Shape Modeling Applications, 2004., 2004
Computing the planar sections of objects is a fundamental operation in solid modeling. Subdivision method is commonly used for solving such intersection problems. In this paper, a revolute quadric decomposition is proposed for surfaces of revolution, which are subdivided into a set of coaxial revolute quadrics along the generatrix.

Willmore Surfaces of Revolution

2010
This last chapter serves to give a first existence result for a priori bounded classical solutions of the Dirichlet problem forWillmore surfaces and thereby to outline possible directions of further research. In order to see which kind of phenomena and results concerning compact embedded solutions in R3 of boundary value problems for the corresponding ...
