Try applying Dijkstra's Algorithm on remeshing / generation effect on mesh

.

Experiment with what outcome it could create

Contour over eometry

A contour is a line formed by equidistant points, but it is difficult to partition a contour uniformly over irregular geometry. By labeling the shortest distance, we can get the contour of a mesh based on a point.

Accurate control

It is also possible to control the contour position more accurately by using the proportional control on the edge.

Contour over irregular eometry

Applied to complex geometries, it allows for a clear analysis of modeling logic and form features.

Connecting contour and endpoints

The generated contour points are then connected to the endpoints with minimal paths to achieve the effect of reconstructing the generation on the existing mesh.

test on geometry

The position of the generated structure can be controlled by endpoints
