  • Patent number: 10460006
    Abstract: Method for processing data defining an element in a space E or: a/ we define a set of n points in E; b/ determined is the intersection between said element and a cell Voroni determined from the point that associates him x, implementing an iterative process that has no current iteration k, it selects an additional point x of the game distinct from x points and the intersection between calculi is half of the space bounded by the hyperplane E mediator of the segment that contains x, and resulting intersection calculi in no previous iteration, the selection of X is function of a comparison between x and x and twice the maximum distance between a bridge and a result of intersection when iterative processing.

  • Patent number: 9582912
    Abstract: Device for aiding the production of a mesh, includes storing first numerical data defining a surface to be processed, a partitioner calculating three-dimensional work cells given initial points, each work cell associated with a point in space, a tiling tool actuating the partitioner with a first set of initial points, defined with respect to the surface, so as to obtain a first set of work cells, an evaluator calculating a cumulative quantity representing the sum of the moments of the points of the work cells with respect to their associated points, and an optimizer iteratively actuating the tiling tool and the evaluator with a set of initial points drawn from the previous sets, according to a rule calculated to minimize said cumulative quantity. The moments are determined by a chosen nonnative function, of order higher than or equal to two and/or according to an adaptation matrix representing an anisotropy field.
