A NEW NON-UNIFORM LOOP SCHEME

Abstract

In this paper, we introduce a new non-uniform Loop scheme. It refines selected areas which are chosen manually or automatically according to the precision of the control mesh compared to the limit surface. Our algorithm avoids cracks and generates a progressive mesh with a difference of at most one subdivision level between two adjacent faces. As adaptive subdivision is repeated, subdivision depth changes gradually from one area of the surface to another area. Moreover generated meshes remain a regular valence. Results obtained from our scheme are compared to those of the T-algorithm and the incremental algorithm.
