A Multi-constraint 3D Mesh Models Deformation Method

Aiming at the problems of too many control vertices and difficult operation of the traditional free deformation technique, a multi-constraint 3D mesh models deformation method is proposed. Firstly, the input model is embedded into a sparse tetrahedral control mesh, and the positional relationship between the model and the control mesh is established using tetrahedral coordinates. Secondly, skeleton nodes are set on the model to generate skeleton segments, control mesh vertices are bound to the skeleton segments, the control mesh is deformed by manipulating the rotation and translation of the skeleton nodes, and finally the new positions of the model vertices are computed based on the control mesh. Since the skeleton drives a sparse tetrahedral control mesh, the accuracy of model deformation will be reduced, resulting in a series of problems in the deformed model. In order to optimize the model deformation, this paper sets the influence range of the control mesh on the model deformation by the weight of the constraint region, adds point constraints to the control mesh vertices to set the change range of this vertex, and finally calculates the correction factor according to the stretch constraints and volume constraints, and optimally adjusts the position of the control meshes vertices. The experimental results show that this method can make up for the problems of the traditional free deformation technique, which is complicated and unintuitive to operate, and improve the accuracy of deforming the model.
