Deformable orthogonal grids: lemniscates

摘要

In this paper we describe a technique, based on complex polynomials, for creating plane regions with a hole and propose a new method to produce an orthogonal grid on it. The thickness of the grid can be easily controlled and the sizes of the cells can be automatically estimated. The grid is automatically adapted to the boundary of the region. We offer parameters for the control of the geometric shape of the region, which depend on the roots of the polynomial and its derivative.
