Abstract
In this paper, we present a method for cons***cting a 3D cross-
frame field, a 3D extension of the 2D cross-frame field as applied
to surfaces in applications such as quadrangulation and texture syn-
thesis. In contrast to the surface cross-frame field (equivalent to a
4-Way Rotational-Symmetry vector field), symmetry for 3D cross-
frame fields cannot be formulated by simple one-parameter 2D ro-
tations in the tangent planes. To address this critical issue, we rep-
resent the 3D frames by spherical harmonics, in a manner invariant
to combinations of rotations around any axis by multiples of =2.
With such a representation, we can formulate an efficient smooth-
ness measure of the cross-frame field. Through minimization of
this measure under certain boundary conditions, we can cons***ct
a smooth 3D cross-frame field that is aligned with the surface nor-
mal at the boundary. We visualize the resulting cross-frame field
through restrictions to the boundary surface, streamline tracing in
the volume, and singularities. We also demonstrate the applica-
tion of the 3D cross-frame field to producing hexahedron-dominant
meshes for given volumes, and discuss its potential in high-quality
hexahedralization, much as its 2D counterpart has shown in quad-
