Geometrical Constraints on the

by Cosmological Constant, M. D. Maia, G. S. Silva, Df. Brasil , 2008
"... The cosmological constant problem is examined under the assumption that the extrinsic curvature of the space-time contributes to the vacuum. A compensation mechanism based on a variable cosmological term is proposed. Under a suitable hypothesis on the behavior of the extrinsic curvature, we find tha ..."

The cosmological constant problem is examined under the assumption that the extrinsic curvature of the space-time contributes to the vacuum. A compensation mechanism based on a variable cosmological term is proposed. Under a suitable hypothesis on the behavior of the extrinsic curvature, we find that an initially large Λ(t) rolls down rapidly to zero during the early stages of the universe. Using perturbation analysis, it is shown that such vacuum behaves essentially as a spin-2 field which is independent of the metric.

A Geometric Constraint Solver

by William Bouma, Ioannis Fudos, Christoph Hoffmann, Jiazhen Cai, Robert Paige , 1995
"... We report on the development of a two-dimensional geometric constraint solver. The solver is a major component of a new generation of CAD systems that we are developing based on a high-level geometry representation. The solver uses a graph-reduction directed algebraic approach, and achieves interact ..."

Solving Geometric Constraint Systems

by Glenn A. Kramer, Brighton Bn Qh , 1990
"... Finding the configurations of a set of rigid bodies that satisfy a set of geometric constraints is a problem traditionally solved by reformulating the geometry and constraints as algebraic equations which are solved symbolically or numerically. But many such problems can be solved by reasoning symbo ..."

Geometrical Constraint in Grasping

by Satoshi Makita, Yusuke Ohta, Kojiro Matsushita
"... Abstract — Geometrical constraint in grasping, which is as known as caging, gives some advantages over conventional force-controlled grasping. For the difficulty of achievement of complete caging from the limitation of DOF of the hand, we propose partial caging, where the object is partly surrounded ..."

Qualitative Study of Geometric Constraints

by Hervé Lamure, Dominique Michelucci , 1997
"... Modelling by geometric constraints is a promising method in the field of CAD/CAM. However, this process, closely related to computer programming, is also prone error. A geometric constraints based modeller should help the end user to find his mistakes , or, better, not to commit ones by watching ..."

Geometric Constraints for CAGD

by Christoph M. Hoffmann, Jörg Peters - In Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Mathematical Methods for CAGD, Ulvic , 1995
"... . To enrich the shape vocabulary of mechanical CAD systems, we develop techniques that allow defining free-form curves from geometric constraints. An important aspect of this aproach is the ability to obtain all possible instances of curve segments satisfying the constraints of a dimensioned sketch. ..."

Interactive Geometric Constraint Satisfaction

by Remco C. Veltkamp, Farhad Arbab , 1996
"... This paper presents a new incremental approach to geometric constraint satisfaction that is tailored to interactive applications. Our approach categorizes solutions into geometric primitives representing a range of solutions with uniform geometric characteristics. This scheme keeps intermediate solu ..."

Spatial Modelling with Geometric Constraints

by B. Seybold, F. Metzger, G. Ogan, J. Bathelt, F. Collenberg, J. Taiber, K. Simon, M. Engeli - In Proc. PACT97 , 1997
"... In recent years constraint-based modelling has become an important method for describing dependencies within a CAD-model. In this paper, we present a constraint-based approach for the assembly, the spatial joining of separate rigid bodies. It is mainly influenced by Kramer's rule-based state au ..."
