| Publisher Description: MESH is a mathematical video on polyhedral meshes and their role in geometry, numerics and computer graphics. The film is completely computer-generated using the latest technology and spans the range from ancient Greek mathematics to the area of geometric modelling of today. MESH was the topic of an invited talk at ICIAM 2003 in Sydney by Konrad Polthier. His coauthor, Beau Janzen, is a professional film director. The film is an excellent teaching tool for courses on geometry, visualization, scientific computing and geometric modelling at universities and centres for computational science, and can be used in schools, too. |
