Abstract

A general complex structure graph constructing method and the associated computer program is described. The generators and initiators selected by the user are used as the geometrical graphing basis. Using the transformation information of the generators and the operation information between the generators and the initiators, the geometrical transformation and duplication of the objects are performed according to the definitions of duplication objects and connecting objects. This implements the geometrical graphing of complex structures. It is characterized in that: the operations are performed in a visualized way, including graphing operations (e.g., generation of objects), parameter transmissions (e.g., shifted duplications), and data generation (e.g., generation of a geometrical graph). Since the operations are simple and can be implemented on all computer executable platforms and is suitable for artistic designs, graphing, and teaching.
