• Efficient Culling Techniques for Interactive Deformable NURBS Surfaces on GPU 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Padrón, Emilio J.; Doggett, Michael (SciTePress, 2016-02)
      [Abstrtact] InfoValue: NURBS (Non-uniform rational B-splines) surfaces are the standard freeform representation in Computer-Aided Design (CAD) applications. Rendering NURBS surfaces accurately while they are interactively ...
    • Free adaptive tessellation strategy of bézier surfaces 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Bóo, Montserrat; Padrón, Emilio J. (SciTePress, 2014-01)
      [Abstract] Rendering of Bézier surfaces is currently performed by tessellating the model on the GPU and rendering the highly detailed triangle mesh. Whereas non-adaptive strategies apply the same tessellation pattern to ...
    • Interactive Rendering of NURBS Surfaces 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Padrón, Emilio J.; Doggett, Michael (Pergamon Press, 2014)
      [Abstract] NURBS (Non-uniform rational B-splines) surfaces are one of the most useful primitives employed for high quality modeling in CAD/CAM tools and graphics software. Since direct evaluation of NURBS surfaces on the ...
    • Real time rendering of parametric surfaces on the GPU 

      Concheiro, Raquel (2013)
      [Abstract] Although the first electronic circuit specifically designed to accelerate rendering was developed in the early 1980s, the term GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) was popularized by the Nvidia Geforce 256 in 1999. ...
    • Rendering of Bézier Surfaces on Handheld Devices 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Padrón, Emilio J.; Gil, Marisa; Martorell, Xavier (Vaclav Skala - Union Agency, 2013)
      [Abstract] Bézier surfaces have been widely employed in the designing of complex scenes with high-quality results. Nevertheless, parametric surfaces cannot be directly rendered in the current GPUs of modern handheld devices. ...
    • Synthesis of Multiresolution Scenes with Global Illumination on a GPU 

      Concheiro, Raquel; Amor, Margarita; Bóo, Montserrat; Iglesias, Iago; Padrón, Emilio J.; Doallo, Ramón (SciTePress, 2012-02)
      [Abstract] The radiosity computation has the important feature of producing view independent results, but these results are mesh dependent and, in consequence, are attached to a specific level of detail in the input mesh. ...
