A Survey on SPH Methods in Computer Graphics
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2022)Throughout the past decades, the graphics community has spent major resources on the research and development of physics simulators on the mission to computer-generate behaviors achieving outstanding visual effects or to ... -
A Halfedge Refinement Rule for Parallel Loop Subdivision
(The Eurographics Association, 2022)We observe that a Loop refinement step invariably splits halfedges into four new ones. We leverage this observation to formulate a breadth-first uniform Loop subdivision algorithm: Our algorithm iterates over halfedges to ... -
RePiX VR - Learning environment for the Rendering Pipeline in Virtual Reality
(The Eurographics Association, 2022)Virtual reality can be used to support computer graphics teaching, e.g. by offering the chance to illustrate 3D processes that are difficult to convey. This paper describes the development and first evaluations of RePiX ... -
Transparent Rendering and Slicing of Integral Surfaces Using Per-primitive Interval Arithmetic
