Abstract
Since early 2008, the
Laboratorio de Computacion Grafica
y Geometria Aplicada (CGGA) and the
Computacion Cientfica research group
of the Universidad Nacional de Colombia,
Sede Medellin have been collaborating
in a series of themes concerning geometry
and optimization with a strong emphasis
on applications. In this minisymposium
we will be presenting results concerning
the following topics:
- Using lemniscates to construct orthogonal
grids on meander-like regions
- Using envelopes of 1-parameter families
to construct path splines
- The Prony method in the detection
of tissue types in brain
- Construction of developable low
degree patches
- Models of molecular surfaces
- Distribution of circles along a
cyclide.
