A Realtime Observatory for Laboratory Simulation of Planetary Circulation
Abstract. We present a physical, laboratory-scale analog of large-scale atmospheric circulation and develop an observatory for it. By combining observations of a hydro-dynamically ...

A Geometry Dependent Texture Generation Framework for Simulating Surface Imperfections
: To model surface imperfections and weathering, we proposea two-step texture generation framework in between manual texture synthesis and automatic physical simulation. Although t...
