Cyclic Plain-Weaving on Polygonal Mesh Surfaces with Graph Rotation Systems

We show that graph rotation systems with twisted edges can represent links and knots, in addition to manifold meshes.

Plain-weaving consists of threads that are interlaced so that a traversal of each thread alternately goes over and under the other threads (or itself) as it crosses them.

To model a plain-weaving pattern on a surface, we construct an alternating projection of a link.

We prove that it is possible to create such a plain-weaving pattern for any given manifold mesh by twisting all of the edges of a related orientable manifold mesh.

We have developed a new method that converts plain-weaving cycles to 3D thread structures.

Our method provides both sparse and dense plain-weaving.

We also formally classify plain-weaving patterns.
