    • The Art of Knitted Fabrics, Realistic & Physically Based Modelling Of Knitted Patterns 

      Meißner, M.; Eberhardt, B. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      In this paper we will present a system to use three dimensional computer graphics in garment design. This system is capable to visualize the "real", i.e. the physically correct, appearance of a knitted fabric. A fast ...

    • Tree Visualisation and Navigation Clues for Information Visualisation 

      Herman, Ivan; Delest, Maylis; Melancon, Guy (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Information visualisation often requires good navigation aids on large trees, which represent the underlying abstract information. Using trees for information visualisation requires novel user interface techniques, visual ...

    • A Two-Pass Hardware-Based Method for Hierarchical Radiosity 

      Martin, I.; Pueyo, X.; Tost, D. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Finite elements methods for radiosity are aimed at computing global illumination solutions efficiently. However these methods are not suitable for obtaining high quality images due to the lack of error control. Two-pass ...

    • Using Wavefront Tracing for the Visualization and Optimization of Progressive Lenses 

      Loos, J.; Slusallek, Ph.; Seidel, H.-P. (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      Progressive addition lenses are a relatively new approach to compensate for defects of the human visual system. While traditional spectacles use rotationally symmetric lenses, progressive lenses require the specification ...

    • A Vector Approach for Global Illumination in Ray Tracing 

      Zaninetti, Jacques; Serpaggi, Xavier; Peroche, Bernard (Blackwell Publishers Ltd and the Eurographics Association, 1998)
      This paper presents a method taking global illumination into account in a ray tracing environment. A vector approach is introduced, which allows to deal with all the types of light paths and the directional properties of ...
