DELAUNAY_LMAP_2D
Delaunay Triangulations Under Linear Maps

DELAUNAY_LMAP_2D is a FORTRAN90 program, using double precision arithmetic, which computes the Delaunay triangulation of a set of points in the plane that have been transformed by a linear map A.

Specifically, DELAUNAY_LMAP_2D reads two input files:

• a node file containing (many) point coordinates (X,Y);
• a map file containing the entries of the 2x2 matrix A that describes the linear distortion of the geometry;

• an order 3 triangulation file, listing the indices of the 3 nodes that form each Delaunay triangle,
• an Encapsulated PostScript file containing an image of the triangulation.

In a sense, there's no reason to do all this fancy stuff. You can simply multiply your data by A yourself, get the Delaunay triangulation of the transformed data, and then recover your original data.

The main reason for setting up this code is to prepare for cases that are a generalization of this one, in which the matrix A actually varies spatially.

GRID105 is a set of 105 points in the unit square, arranged into 5 columns of 21 points each. The points were originally evenly spaced in the X direction, and evenly spaced in the Y direction, but a uniform random perturbation of scale 0.03 was applied to both coordinates of every point. Because the data has been compressed by a factor of 5 in the Y direction, we get some "ugly" triangles if we do a Delaunay triangulation directly on the data. However, if we use a (1,5) dilation matrix to uncompress the Y direction, the triangles look much nicer (except along the boundary, where we are powerless to help). Test files you may copy include:
