	~~__NOTOC__~~
	The models shown in these tutorials illustrate features of the AAMToolbox software. They are not designed to understand the shape and appearance modelling which is better done from the published literature [http://www.computer.org/portal/web/csdl/doi/10.1109/34.982900 for example].<br>
	Viewing these pages. Some versions of ''Firefox'' and ''Explorer'' do not create satisfactory prints even though you can view the pages with no problems. ''Chrome'' does appear to produce good printouts.

'''Into what shape will the disc grow?''' This model is as simple as it gets. Notice that, during growth, the mesh is automatically subdivided. Notice also that the final surface is not quite flat.

There are options to initialise a flat mesh and others to force it to remain flat - see options on the GUI (hover over controls to get prompts).
