3D object reconstruction by point coordinates of 2D line drawings

It is a research subject in computer vision to 3D reconstruction of an object represented by a single 2D line drawing. Previous works on 3D reconstruction from 2D line drawings focus on objects with lines, plane, view, and so on. This paper mainly studies the 3D reconstruction from 2D line drawings. Besides, a new approach is proposed： it is that for the research of the point coordinates of 2D line drawings, so as to achieve the object reconstruction by the reconstruction of point coordinates. The reconstruction process includes： （1） the collection of point coordinates （X,Y） of 2D line drawings; （2） the derivation of mathematical formula about the reconstruction of the point of 2D line drawings, and calculating the corresponding point of the 3D coordinates; （3） the regeneration of 3D graphics with 3D points; （4） analyze error by the proportional of parallel of axonometric projection, in order to prove the accuracy of the method.

Expression of pain and distress in children during dental extractions through drawings as a projective measure: A clinical study

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy of drawings as a projective measure of pain and distress in children undergoing dental extractions.METHODS: Children in the age range of 4-13 years with existence of untreatable caries or over-retained primary teeth, indicated for extractions were included. Pain was assessed using one behavioral, faces, legs, activity, cry and consolability(FLACC) scale; and a self report measure; faces pain scale-revised(FPS-R), at two points of time, after completion of local anesthetic administration and after extraction. The general behavior of children was assessed with Wright's modification of Frankl rating scale. At the end of the session, children were instructed to represent, themselves along with the dentist and their experiences of the dental treatment through drawing. The drawings were scored utilizing Child drawing: Hospital scale(CD: H) manual and correlated with FLACC, FPS-R and Frankl using Pearson correlation test.RESULTS: A positive correlation, though statistically not significant, was observed between CD: H scores and all other considered parameters(Frankl, FPS-R and FLACC) in the present study.CONCLUSION: Drawings could not act as surrogate measure of child's pain; however, they acted as a narrative of his/her experiences and reflection of inner emotions. Hence, drawings can be used as an additional dental armamentarium.

Unfolded Drawings and Views for Irregular Spiral Surface Given Boundary Equations Based on CAD

Taking spiral chute as example, a method of unfolded drawings and views about irregular spiral surface is introduced. The surface is undevelopable and too complicated to get its views or to draw unfolded drawings by manual method. In this article, a series of the boundary equations of the spiral chute are derived by the movement rule of coal flow, and the solid and views of the spiral chute are generated based on redevelopment of SolidWorks. Unfolded drawing is drawn applying triangular development principle. The views and unfolded drawings not only are produced automatically, precisely and parameterized, but also involve more technological information. So it has an important significance on the irregular spiral surface＇s developments and processing.

3D reconstruction of complex curved objects from line drawings

An active research topic in computer vision and graphics is developing algorithms that can reconstruct the 3D surface of curved objects from line drawings. There are a number of algorithms have been dedicated to solve this problem, but they can＇t solve this problem when the geometric structure of a curved object becomes complex. This paper proposes a novel approach to reconstructing a complex curved 3D object from single 2D line drawings. Our approach has three steps： （1） decomposing a complex line drawing into several simpler line drawings and transforming them into polyhedron; （2） reconstructing the 3D wireframe of curved object from these simpler line drawings and generating the curved faces; （3） combining the 3D objects into the complete objects. A number of examples are given to demonstrate the ability of our approach to successfully perform reconstruction of curved objects which are more complex than previous methods.

3D Reconstruction from 2D Line Drawings only with Visible Vertices and Edges

The human vision system can reconstruct a 3D object easily from single 2D line drawings even if the hidden lines of the object are invisible. Now, there are many methods have emulated this ability, but when the hidden lines of the object are invisible, these methods cannot reconstruct a complete 3D object. Therefore, we put forward a new algorithm to settle this hard problem. Our approach consists of two steps： （1） infer the invisible vertices and edges to complete the line drawing, （2） propose a vertex-based optimization method to reconstruct a 3D object.

Automated Dimensioning Method of Engineering Drawings for Mechanical Products Based on Curve Chain

An automated method based on the curve chain was proposed for dimensioning of engineering drawings for the mechanical products.According to the internal relation between the features of 3D model feature and elements of 2D drawing,the curve chain was established to reflect the geometric topological structure between the elements.It divides the dimensions into the absolute dimensions within the cure chain and the relative dimensions between the curve chains.The parallel and lengthy relationship between the drawing elements of the constructed X and Y parallel matrix was solved to remove redundant elements in the curve chain and labeled the absolute dimensions of the remaining valid elements.The average minimum weight coefficient was introduced to judge the dependence on the relative dimensions between curve chains.Through the analysis of the overlap between the circular rectangular areas,including all the absolute dimensions of the curve chains,overlapping curve chains were merged,and their dimensions were rearranged to avoid the cross interference between them.The method was seamlessly integrated into the drafting module of product design software NX,and it developed an automated dimensioning system.The examples show that the system has excellent interactivity and robustness in the dimensioning of product engineering drawings.The dimension information is complete,accurate and reliable.

Labeling Line Drawings with Hidden-Part-Drawn of Planar Object with Trihedral Vertices

Although line drawings consist of only line segments on a plane, they convey much information about the three-dimensional object structures. For a computer interpreting line drawings, some intelligent mechanism is required to extract three-dimensional information from the two-dimensional line drawings. In this paper, a new labeling theory and method are proposed for the two-dimensional line drawing with hidden-part-draw of a three-dimensional planar object with trihedral vertices. Some rules for labeling line drawing are established. There are 24 kinds of possible junctions for line drawing with hidden-part-draw, in which there are 8 possible Y and 16 W junctions. The three problems are solved that Sugihara＇s line drawing labeling technique exists. By analyzing the projections of the holes in manifold planar object, we have put forward a labeling method for the line drawing. Our labeling theory and method can discriminate between correct and incorrect hidden-part-draw natural line drawings. The hidden-part-draw natural line drawings can be labeled correctly by our labeling theory and method, whereas the labeling theory of Sugihara can only label the hidden-part-draw unnatural line drawings in which some visible lines must be drawn as hidden lines, and some invisible lines must be drawn as continuous lines.

An approach for converting orthographic projection drawings into 3D-CAD models

Abstract： Hand drawings and two dimensional （2D） CAD drawings have been replaced by three dimensional （3D） CAD models in mechanical design, but some 2D drawings produced before are needed in the new design. However, the techniques and software packages for automatically converting 2D drawings into 3D-CAD models with high precision have not yet been developed due to the difficulties to verify the validity of the drawings, to decide the hidden lines and eoncavo-convex faces, and to represent free-form surfaces. In addition, it is very time consuming to manually convert a large number of 2D drawings into 3D CAD models. To address these problems, we propose an approach for converting 2D drawings into 3D-CAD models automatically.

Feature-preserving color pencil drawings from photographs

Color pencil drawing is well-loved due to its rich expressiveness.This paper proposes an approach for generating feature-preserving color pencil drawings from photographs.To mimic the tonal style of color pencil drawings,which are much lighter and have relatively lower saturation than photographs,we devise a lightness enhancement mapping and a saturation reduction mapping.The lightness mapping is a monotonically decreasing derivative function,which not only increases lightness but also preserves input photograph features.Color saturation is usually related to lightness,so we suppress the saturation dependent on lightness to yield a harmonious tone.Finally,two extremum operators are provided to generate a foreground-aware outline map in which the colors of the generated contours and the foreground object are consistent.Comprehensive experiments show that color pencil drawings generated by our method surpass existing methods in tone capture and feature preservation.

The evolution of Liang Sicheng’s construction of Chinese architectural traditions in his drawings(1920se1930s)

This article investigates one of the earliest attempts to systematically construct a building tradition and incorporate it into modern Chinese architectural design.These efforts were put forth by Liang Sicheng(1901e1972),one of the most distinguished Chinese architects and architectural historians,in the 1920s and 1930s in China,informed by the strong collective intention to honour the Chinese past.This article provides a historical and critical reflection on this collective intention that is still shared nowadays by architects and architectural theorists.This article examines in depth the evolution of the different ways Liang used the building past and constructed the Chinese architectural traditions in different crucial stages of his architectural career in the 1920s and 1930s.It uses architectural drawing as both the research subject and the research method.Three of Liang’s representative drawings from these crucial professional stages are juxtaposed and investigated to reveal this evolution using the iconography and iconology method.

In this paper, we present a comprehensive survey on line drawing studies, including cognitive mechanism of visual perception, computational models in computer vision and intelligent process in diverse media applications. Major debates, challenges and solutions that have been addressed over the years are discussed. Finally some of the ensuing challenges in line drawing studies are outlined.

Effect of wire diameter compression ratio on drawing deformation of micro copper wire

A crystal plasticity finite element model was developed for the drawing deformation of pure copper micro wire,based on rate-dependent crystal plasticity theory.The impact of wire diameter compression ratio on the micro-mechanical deformation behavior during the wire drawing process was investigated.Results indicate that the internal deformation and slip of the drawn wire are unevenly distributed,forming distinct slip and non-slip zones.Additionally,horizontal strain concentration bands develop within the drawn wire.As the wire diameter compression ratio increases,the strength of the slip systems and the extent of slip zones inside the deformation zone also increase.However,the fluctuating stress state,induced by contact pressure and frictional stress,results in a rough and uneven wire surface and diminishes the stability of the drawing process.

Modeling asymmetric fracture mechanics of Mg alloy wire in drawing process

In this study,a numerical analysis was conducted on the ductile fracture of a 2-mm diameter Mg-1Zn-0.5Mn-0.5Sr-0.1Ca alloy wire during drawing.The hexagonally close-packed crystal structure of Mg alloys causes asymmetric fracture behavior,especially in the compression region.The aim of this study is to develop a comprehensive damage model for Mg alloy wire that accurately predicts ductile fracture,with a focus on the compression region.A novel experimental method was introduced to measure the ductile fracture of Mg alloy wires under different stress states.The wire drawing process was simulated using the Generalized Incremental Stress-State dependent damage(GISSMO)Model and the Semi-Analytical Model for Polymers(SAMP)model.The damage model's prediction and the experimental results were found to be in excellent agreement,especially in determining crack initiation.Computational analysis established a safe zone diagram for die angle and reduction ratio,and experimental validation confirmed the feasibility of this approach.The proposed damage model can provide a practical and reliable analysis for optimizing the drawing process of Mg alloy wire.
