 | Graph-based approach for solving geometric constraint problems | This dissertation presents a new graph representation for constraint problems based on the notion of degrees of freedom and valencies. Any geometric primitive ( point, line, circle, plane, etc.) possess an intrinsic degree of freedom in its embedding space. Constraints reduce the degrees of freedom ... | computers; geometric constraint problems; graph | 1996-05 |

 | Scientific visualization for finite element analysis data sets | The research is focused on developing new techniques for visualizing FEA data sets. In this thesis, new parallel volume rendering algorithms are outlined to speed up scalar field visualization. Strreamlines, streamribbons and streamtubes are the most fundamental tools for exploring vector field data... | finite element analysis; FEA; computers; algorithms | 1996-08 |

 | TWEAK: A three-dimensional toolkit and modeling system using snapping and constraints | The goal of this thesis is to provide a simple and intuitive user interface to a three-dimensional (3D) Computer Aided Design system. The interactive modeling system described here was built to demonstrate the utility of this user interface. The four main parts of the system are discussed. | Tweak; snapping; constraint; interactive modeling system; DI-3D graphics library | 1996-12 |
