TPTITLE:Merging of Dynamic Surface Meshes
TPABSTRACT:Triangle mesh surfaces are a common and useful representation for digital geometry, but when applied to physical simulations or other problems involving complex deformations, they can often end up colliding and intersecting. In the case of a water animation, we would like to merge the colliding geometry together so that, for example, two water droplets merge into one. I will provide an overview of three general strategies that have been proposed to achieve this effect, and discuss some of their trade-offs.
