A Survey of Several Root-Finding Methods in the Complex Plane
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
In this paper a few classes of root-finding iterative methods are presented and used in the complex plane to solve the equation z4? 1 = 0. These methods are studied using computer graphics techniques.
The Formal Specification of Level la of GKS
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
In this paper the formal specification of a part of level la of GKS is given in the algebraic specification language OBJ. It shows that it is possible to produce a formal specification of a substantial part of GKS which ...
Triangle Sets in PHIGS PLUS: a Valuable Link with Finite Element Modeling
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
At the ISO/IEC editing meeting on PHIGS PLUS1 in Villars sur Ollon, Switzerland from 9 to 14 September 1990, an additional output primitive was added to PHIGS PLUS: TRIANGLE SET 3 WITH DATA together with its 2D shorthand. ...
Inspection of Lace Using Machine Vision
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
Block Iterations in the Complex Plane
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
In this note we propose a new technique for execution of the feedback process z ? z2+ c. The presented method is used to discover a family of sets in the complex plane.
Control Points for Multivariate B-Spline Surfaces over Arbitrary Triangulations
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
This paper describes first results of a test implementation that implements the new multivariate B-splines as recently developed by Dahmen et al. 10for quadratics and cubics. The surface scheme is based on blending functions ...
Object-Oriented Data Modelling for Graphics Databases: a Declarative Approach
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
This paper presents a new scheme to integrate the declarative approach to graphics and object-oriented data modelling techniques to form a fruitful symbiosis for constraint-based graphics database systems. It has rich ...
Development of an Intelligent Wheelchair Using Computer Graphics Animation and Simulation
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
A new robot simulator JC-1 is used as a control software development tool in a project in progress where an intelligent wheelchair for a blind user is being developed. The intelligent wheelchair is planned to be able to ...
The Shortest Way to Draw a Connected Picture
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
With any word over the alphabet ?=r, r?, u, u, we associate a connected picture in the following manner: the reading of each letter of this word induces a unit line: r (r?, u, u respectively) stands for a right (left, up, ...
Million-Point Sculptures
(Blackwell Science Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1991)
Visually interesting chaotic attractors resembling sculpture are described.
