Kangaroo contains a Laplacian force component, which allows for cotangent weighting The literature I’ve been looking at uses this type of operator to calculate a Laplacian on a mesh, where each vertex is assigned the value of some function. In the Kangaroo example provided by @DanielPiker , its used…
