Consider a simple polyhedron P, possibly non-convex, composed of n triangular regions (faces), each assigned a positive weight indicating the cost of travel in that region. We present and experimentally study several algorithms to compute an approximate weighted geodesic shortest path, ß 0 (s; t), between two points s and t on the surface of P. Our algorithms are simple, practical, less prone to numerical problems, adaptable to a wide spectrum of weight functions, and use only elementary data structures. An additional feature of our algorithms is that execution time and space utilization can be traded off for accuracy; likewise, a sequence of approximate shortest paths for a given pair of points can be computed with increasing accuracy (and execution time) if desired. Dynamic changes to the polyhedron (removal, insertions of vertices or faces) are easily handled. The key step in these algorithms is the construction of a graph by introducing Steiner points on the edges of the given p...
