Chaudhry, Ehtzaz. "Skin deformation and animation of character models based on static and dynamic ordinary differential equations." Thesis, Bournemouth University, 2016. http://eprints.bournemouth.ac.uk/25037/.

Abstract:

Animated characters play an important role in the field of computer animation, simulation and games. The basic criterion of good character animation is that the animated characters should appear realistic. This can be achieve through proper skin deformations for characters. Although various skin deformation approaches (Joint-based, Example-based, Physics-based, Curve-based and PDE-based) have been developed, the problem of generating realistic skin deformations efficiently with a small data set is a big challenge. In order to address the limitations of skin deformation, this thesis presents a

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to determine factors that influence people’s perceptions toward perceived emotion of virtual characters. In the experiment, two characters (male and female) were design in three different cases. The first case is in the facial expression (happy, sad and neutral). The second case is on the cloth color (positive, negative, and calm). The third case is in the body positions (happy, sad, and neutral pose). An online survey was developed after combining all variations of facial expression, body expression, and color of cloth with 54 images to evaluate the factors. The surve

Abstract:

Several historians have identified North Texas as constituting a unique cultural region in antebellum Texas, due to the more limited cotton and slave economies and greater opposition to secession. Different settlement patterns have been put forward as an explanation for the distinct "character" of North Texas, with North Texas being portrayed as being settled largely by migrants from the Upper South while the rest of the state was primarily settled by Lower Southerners. The argument rests on the assumption of differing economic and political cultures between Upper and Lower Southerners. This s

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the importance of the orphan hero in film and his resonance with the American people. It explores the orphan and the American identities, the archetypes found in myths, and the hero in American culture. The three heroes (Batman, Anakin Skywalker, and Harry Potter) represent certain aspects of orphan heroes: the capacity for sacrifice and the need to resist focusing on oneself. The type of hero each becomes has its source in the response he takes to his orphanhood. These young men suffered great loss early in their lives, but found the strength to sacrif

This thesis explores the shifting dynamics in low-income housing policy between the federal government and local stakeholders in Los Angeles from the early 1930’s to the end of the 1980’s. In particular, it examines the introduction and implementation of two of the federal government’s largest low-income housing programs: the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program and the Low Income Housing Tax Credit. Many analyses of low-income housing policy in Los Angeles focus mainly on local tensions and power dynamics. This thesis seeks to build on this literature by arguing that shifts at the federal

Abstract:

This project utilizes a case study approach to explore the various ways in which the portrayals of gay people have changed on American television. Three contemporary programs - Will & Grace, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and The L Word - are examined as examples of how far American television has progressed in terms of treating gay people with respect. Whether those shows move beyond merely presenting gay characters and into a level of actively challenging mainstream views on gay people is also examined. Findings suggest different factors affect the ability of the individual programs to test

This thesis focuses in the development and application of new tools for the analysis of the electron distribution in molecules, focusing on the concepts of local spins, and oxidation state.

The first one deals with the formulation of a new atom in molecule definition reproducing to some extent the results of the QTAIM (Quantum theory of atoms in molecules) analysis at a much reduced computational cost. In the second part we propose a new methodology to obtain local spins from wave function analysis and we relate local spins with the chemical bo

Caliban, the ultimate figure of linguistic and racial indeterminacy in The Tempest, became for African-American writers a symbol of colonial fears of rebellion against oppression and southern fears of black male sexual aggression.

The figure of Caliban allows these authors to inflect the sentimental structure of the novel, to elevate Calibanic utterance to what Cooper calls "crude grandeur and exalted poesy," and to reveal

The discussion will concentrate on the position in the United States of America, the United Kingdom and South Africa. It appears that the reluctance to afford copyright protection to fictional characters stems from their dichotomic nature. As such, the impact of the idea/expression dichotomy will be examined as it is the key issue in determining whether a fictional character will be protected by copyright.

Abstract:

The vehement defense of the African slave trade by Georgia and South Carolina in United States Congress during the trade's constitutionally protected period cannot be fully explained by a Lower South planter concern for the security of slavery. Honor and state character were critical considerations in shaping the arguments raised by Lower South representatives in defense of African importation. Accordingly, the debates were as much about honor and character as they were protection of slavery. Because of importation, antitrade congressmen attacked the Lower South's character as inconsistent wit

Abstract:

Twentieth century American fiction assimilates archetypes of traditional mythologies, in particular the hero archetype, to create a contemporary mythology which relays social issues relevant to its age. This is first approached by creating a theoretical framework, which primarily consists of both Jungian theories of the collective unconscious and the model on which Joseph Campbell based his conception of the archetype in what is known as myth criticism. The theoretical framework also introduces and describes the graphic novel and its use of characterisation distinctive to post-modern fiction.
