碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊科學系 === 89 === In Computer Graphics, the simulation of natural phenomena is still a challenging problem. In this thesis, we present a technique valid for simulating the appearance of moss in natural environment. First, we adopt the environmentally-sensitive L-system for generating the moss propagation on the surface of an object, according to the environmental factors and object geometry. Then in accordance with the level specified by users, we map the defined volume textures of moss to the surface. In this way, we can synthesis the visual images of objects covered with mosses automatically.
