Hierarchical triangular mesh

Diagram of Hierarchical Triangular Mesh (HTM). The spherical polygons are the projection of the edges of the octahedron onto the circumscribing sphere.

Hierarchical Triangular Mesh (HTM) is a kind of quad tree based on subdivision of a distorted octahedron, used for mesh generation in 3-D computer graphics and geometric data structures.[1]

Functions

  • It provides a systematic indexing method for objects localized on a sphere.[2]
  • It is an efficient method for searching different resolutions like arc seconds or hemispheres.[1]
  • It can be used as a method to subdivide the spherical surface into triangles of nearly equal shape and size.[2]

Kinin–kallikrein system

The kinin–kallikrein system or simply kinin system is a poorly understood hormonal system with limited available research.[1] It consists of blood proteins that play a role in inflammation,[2] blood pressure control, coagulation and pain. Its important mediators bradykinin and kallidin are vasodilators and act on many cell types. Clinical symptoms include marked weakness, tachycardia, fever, leukocytosis and acceleration of ESR. History The system was discovered in 1909 whe...
