Curvilinear constraints for free form deformations on subdivision surfaces
This paper presents a method to deform a subdivision surface with curvilinear constraints. It combines an intuitive free form deformation with a Loop subdivision algorithm. The main advantage of this method of deformation is that it uses only vertices of an object and satisfies the geometrical constraints provided by the user. It permits us to control the final shape of the deformed object, defining the range (i.e. the impact) of the deformation before applying it. The deformation takes into account the Loop properties to follow the subdivision scheme, allowing the user to fix some curvilinear constraints at the subdivision level he works on and to render the final object at the level he wa…

Generalized SCODEF Deformations on Subdivision Surfaces
This paper proposes to define a generalized SCODEF deformation method on a subdivision surface. It combines an “easy-to-use” free-form deformation with a Loop subdivision algorithm. The deformation method processes only on vertices of an object and permits the satisfaction of geometrical constraints given by the user. The method controls the resulting shape, defining the range (i.e. the impact) of the deformation on an object before applying it. The deformation takes into account the Loop properties to follow the subdivision scheme, allowing the user to fix some constraints at the subdivision-level he works on and to render the final object at the level he wants to. We also propose an adapt…
Extended constrained deformations: a new sculpturing tool
Modelling tools tend to virtual sculpturing, in which a basic object is deformed by user supplied actions. The model we present aims to be generic: whatever the geometric description of the object, we can deform it to satisfy location constraints. Our model deforms the whole space, the image of a point is a blend of deformation functions with a projection matrix which allows the satisfaction of the constraints. The user can define the extent of the deformation (i.e. the part of the object to be deformed), the shape of the deformation function to create profiles and the displacement of the constraint points to be satisfied.
