Geometric Modelling (COMPUTING (SPRINGER-VERLAG) SUPPLEMENTUM)

In this volume experts from university and industry are presenting new technologies for solving industrial problems as well as important and practicable impulses for new research. The following topics are treated: - solid modeling - geometry processing - feature modeling - product modeling - surfaces over arbitrary topologies - blending methods - scattered data algorithms - smoothing and fairing algorithms - NURBS 21 articles are giving a state-of-the-art survey of the relevant problems and issues in the rapidly growing area of geometric modeling.
