Study on morphological model of reed and its visualization based on growth mechanism
基于生长机的芦苇形态模型可视化研究

Morphogenesis model of plant considering its physiological function played the important role in simulating plant growth on computer, After studying morphological and physiological changes of reed during their growth processes and analyzing relations between their characteristics of morphology and physiology, a method for morphological structure modeling of reed based on growth mechanism was introduced. According to this model, visualization algorithm was also presented and large numbers of data resulting from reed development were processed effectively. An example was given and experiment results illustrate the presented model is efficient in simulating reed growth.
