Computing the Inner Distances of Volumetric Models for Articulated Shape Description with a Visibility Graph
Abstract: A new visibility graph based algorithm is presented for computing the inner distances of a 3D shape represented by a volumetric model. The inner distance is defined as the length of the shortest path between landmark points within the shape. The inner...
Implementing Design Critique for Teaching Sustainable Concept Generation
Abstract:  Product design is one of the most important activities that can influence sustainability. Therefore, it is critical to educate students about these methodologies as they are the next generation of engineers. This paper details a study conducted among...
Virtual Repair: Geometric Reconstruction for Remanufacturing Gas Turbine Blades
Abstract: The usage of Direct Metal Deposition (DMD) technology for repairing defective voids in high-value metallic components is time consuming, since traditional geometric reconstruction methods are not seamlessly connected to the DMD process. Here, we consider the...
