A hexahedral mesh connectivity compression with vertex degrees
This paper introduces a new algorithm for the compression of manifold hexahedral meshes topology, using vertex degree. The topology compression consists of two partsthe meshs boundary consisting of quadrilaterals is compressed first, and then the hexahedra are processed by the help of six commands. The topology compression algorithm has been matched against the best-known method to-date, and shows itself to be competitive.
