Surface Deformation with Multi-constraints Based on the Minimum Energy

A method for deformation of 3D point clouds models was proposed with multi-constraints including arc-length constraints and multi-points position constraints. The energy function was built for the polyline which had been converted from the curve. Based on the minimum energy curve method, the curve on the mesh was deformed. The test results show that the proposed method has good performance. Compared with the other method,shape preserving of the curve is better. Finally,this method is used for the deformation of the 3D mannequin model. Circumference changes of the mannequin model can be reflected by the arc-length change in the size of the cross section.
