A Functional-Structural Model of Virtual Plant Based on the Labeling Algorithm and the Growth State Chain

Abstract:

According to the structural characteristics of the plant itself, this paper Improved plant topology parsing classic language L-system and defined the basic unit of a reasonable scale. We combined basic growth unit, which consists of the chain of growth state, and ecological model. Applying C++ language to define L-system rules, rules for parsing, character iteration, physiological and ecological model program; combining with OpenGL graphics library for rendering three-dimensional structure of plant expression. Using classical topology of Botany Roux as experimental model simulation. We compare the simulation results and conventional classical model. At least, we prove this model is applicable.
