Design and Fabrication of Grid-shells Mockups
(The Eurographics Association, 2016)
Statics Aware Voronoi Grid-shells have been recently introduced in the Architectural Geometry field. These are innovative gridshells endowed with a polygonal topology, whose geometry is structurally optimized by means of ...
Tracing Field-Coherent Quad Layouts
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2016)
Given a cross field over a triangulated surface we present a practical and robust method to compute a field aligned coarse quad layout over the surface. The method works directly on a triangle mesh without requiring any ...
Statics Aware Grid Shells
(The Eurographics Association and John Wiley & Sons Ltd., 2015)
We introduce a framework for the generation of polygonal grid-shell architectural structures, whose topology is designed in order to excel in static performances. We start from the analysis of stress on the input surface ...
A computer-assisted constraint-based system for assembling fragmented objects
(The Eurographics Association, 2013)
We propose a computer-assisted constraint-based methodology for virtual reassembly of Cultural Heritage (CH) artworks. Instead than focusing on automatic, unassisted reassembly, we targeted the scenarios where the ...
Digital Fabrication Technologies for Cultural Heritage (STAR)
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
Digital Fabrication technologies exploit a variety of basic technologies to create tangible reproductions of 3D digital models. Even though current 3D printing pipelines still suffer of several restrictions, the reproduction ...
Interlocking Pieces for Printing Tangible Cultural Heritage Replicas
(The Eurographics Association, 2014)
We propose a technique to decompose a 3D digital shape into a set of interlocking pieces that are easy to be manufactured and assembled. The pieces are designed so that they can be represented as a simple height field and, ...
