3Gmap L-systems: an application to the modelling of wood

In this paper an extension of L-systems is proposed, based on three-dimensional (3D) generalized maps that allow an easier control of the internal structure of 3D objects. A first and original application of this extension is also proposed: wood modelling by growth simulation. Numerous other applica...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper an extension of L-systems is proposed, based on three-dimensional (3D) generalized maps that allow an easier control of the internal structure of 3D objects. A first and original application of this extension is also proposed: wood modelling by growth simulation. Numerous other applications of our work are possible, in the area of computer graphics, as well as in botanical science.
