Curve and Surface : Saint-Malo 1999

Bok
Two new volumes of carefully refereed and edited papers on the most current developments in the theory and applications of curves and surfaces.These two volumes contain a selection of papers presented at the Saint-Malo Conference on Approximation Theory in July 1999. Each contains several invited survey papers written by experts in the field, along with contributed research papers. They will be of great interest to mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists working in the fields of Approximation Theory, Computer-Aided Geometric Design (CAGD), Computer Graphics, Numerical Analysis, CAD/CAM, and application areas. Curve and Surface Design includes the following topics: B-bases canal surfaces conics curvature discrete fairing free form surfaces G2-splines highlight lines involute curves multisided patches NURBs and NURPs offsets ray tracing ruled surfaces sculptured surfaces segmentation methods shape preservation texture voronoi diagrams
