A Surface-Based Approach For 3d Approximate Convex Decomposition, Onat Zeybek Kuşkonmaz, Yusuf Sahi̇lli̇oğlu
A Surface-Based Approach For 3d Approximate Convex Decomposition, Onat Zeybek Kuşkonmaz, Yusuf Sahi̇lli̇oğlu
Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Approximate convex decomposition enables the simplification of complex shapes into manageable convex components. In this work, we propose a novel surface-based method to achieve this which leads to efficient computation times and sufficiently convex results while avoiding over-approximating the input model. We start approximation using mesh simplification. Then we iterate over the surface polygons of the mesh and divide them into convex groups. We utilize planar and angular equations to determine suitable neighboring polygons for inclusion in forming convex groups. To ensure our method outputs a sufficient result for a wide range of input shapes, we run multiple iterations of …

In the present work, seven alkyl derivatives of norstictic acid were prepared and evaluated against eight cell lines. Norstictic acid was isolated from the lichen Ramalina anceps and the alkyl derivatives were obtained through reactions with alcohols. Cytotoxicity was evaluated against the 786-0 (kidney carcinoma), MCF7 (breast carcinoma), HT-29 (colon carcinoma), PC-03 (prostate carcinoma), HEP2 (laryngeal carcinoma), B16-F10 (murine melanoma), UACC-62 (human melanoma), and NIH/3T3 (mouse embryonic fibroblast) cell lines using the sulforhodamine B assay. Norstictic acid exhibited poor activity, while the 8'-O-n-butyl-norstictic …
