This Validation section provides input data, processing and
visualization
examples for the Laplace-Beltrami for Meshes code to ensure correctness of
the resultant data. These examples
are useful tests when the program is run on new environments or platforms.
Examples
are displayed with available visualization software.
A sample LaplaceBeltramiOperator command is posted
with each example (or type LaplaceBeltramiOperator for more usage information).
This calculates the harmonics on a closed triangulated surface, in this
case a caudate surface.
The program produces vtk PolyData files (meshes) that have the basis function
values at each vertex stored as PointData. The following figures show the
program output as displayed in CAWorks.
