Evolving Scalars on Curves and Surfaces
Dr David Adalsteinsson
Department of Mathematics, University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
A method to resolve scalar equations on surfaces in 2D and 3D in the context of Level Set Methods will be described. It will be shown how these scalars can be tracked in time, allowing advection/diffusion along the surface, and also allowing the surface to move and stretch/shrink.
