Abstract

In this article, w e presen t ouraxial four dimensional deformation tool. This tool is defined in the con textof geometrical modeling of animations, where animations are represen ted by four dimension p polyhedrons, and it p ermits to con trol theshap e/top ologyof animations.We illustrate this tool by deforming animations represen tinga motionless ob ject into the merging of tw o similar ob jects. And w e show h ow con trolling the shap e of thetool enables to con trol thepath the ob jects follow during the merging but also the smoothness of the merging.
