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>

Notice that, during growth, the mesh is automatically subdivided. Notice also that the final surface is not quite flat. This is because, to allow it to deform in 3D, it is not flat initially. 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).<br><br>
In the absence of a polariser (there is no polariser in this example) growth will be isotropic, in other words growth in the plane of the canvas will be the average of what is specified for ''Kapar'' and ''Kaper'' (''A'' side) and ''Kbpar'' and ''Kbper'' (''B'' side).<br>
