NEW_ORLEANS_2005.TEX

Despite threats from Hurricane Dennis, I attended the SIAM Conference on Control and Its Applications, held in New Orleans from 11 - 14 July, 2005. I gave a 25 minute presentation there with the title

Natural Inclusion of Boundary Points in a Mesh

The LaTeX file used to create the presentation, which employs the Beamer class, is available as

• new_orleans_2005.tex, the LaTeX source;
• a PDF version;

A couple auxilliary files include

• fsu_logo_ybkgrd.pdf Florida State University logo, with yellow background (PDF version).
• fsu_logo_ybkgrd.png Florida State University logo, with yellow background (PNG version).
• multimedia.sty a LaTeX style file needed for inclusion of movies in a presentation.

The file includes two MOV animations:

• cvt_movie_p08.mov an MOV animation of a standard CVT calculation in the "holey pie" region.
• cvt_movie5.mov an MOV animation of a CVT calculation in the "holey pie" region, with hex grid initialization, fixed points, "fat" sampling, and boundary capture.

The file includes many PNG graphics files:

• cvt_movie_p08.mov an MOV animation of a standard CVT calculation in the "holey pie" region.
• cvt_movie_p08_0001.png the first frame of the movie.
• cvt_p04_boundary_fixed.png
• cvt_p07_boundary_fixed.png
• cvt_p08_boundary_fixed.png
• cvt_p08_final_voronoi.png, Voronoi diagram of final CVT data, problem P08, with fixed points, "fat" sampling and boundary capture.
• cvt_p08_hbf.png, final CVT data, problem P08, with fixed points, "fat" sampling and boundary capture.
• cvt_p08_initial_voronoi.png Voronoi diagram of initial hex data, problem P08;
• cvt_p98_weighted.png, CVT calculation with nonuniform density, no boundary capture.
• cvt_p99_weighted.png CVT calculation with nonuniform density, boundary capture enabled.
• p05_boundary.png a picture of the region P05.
• p06_boundary.png, a picture of the region P06.
• p07_boundary.png, a picture of the region P07.
• p08_boundary.png, a picture of the region P08.
• p08_boundary_nodes.png
• p08_cvt.png
• p08_cvt_enlarged_sample.png, suggests how sample points may be taken from an enlarged version of the P08 region.
• p08_cvt_final.png
• p08_cvt_initial.png
• p08_hex_final.png, results of 40 CVT iterations, using data initialized on a hex grid.
• p08_hex_initial.png, initial data for CVT iteration, chosen from a hex grid.
• p08_strang_init.png, initialization of points for the Persson/Strang algorithm.
• p08_strang_nonuniform_nodes.png
• p08_strang_uniform_mesh.png, nodes and mesh computed at the end of the Persson/Strang algorithm on region P08.
• p08_strang_uniform_nodes.png, nodes computed at the end of the Persson/Strang algorithm on region P08.
• p08_triangle_ele_1.png, one set of elements computed by the TRIANGLE code for region P08.
• p08_triangle_ele_2.png, a second set of elements computed by the TRIANGLE code for region P08.
• p08_triangle_node_2.png, vertices of the second set of elements computed by the TRIANGLE code for region P08.
• p09_boundary.png, a picture of the region P09.
