An efficient way of drawing parametric curves and surfaces is to approximate the curve or surface by a sequence of straight-line segments or a mesh of polygons, respectively. In such an approximation, many small line segments or polygons are needed in regions of high curvature, and fewer and larger
Nonrectangular surface patches with curvature continuity ## A K Jones An n-sided region can be decomposed into n rectangles, all meeting at a common vertex. For odd n, derivative data can be defined for each rectangular patch at the common vertex that allows continuity of tangent planes and, opt
The paper consists of two parts. In the first, an interrogation method for a visualization of curvature behaviour is introduced. The method consists of a generalized focal analysis. The second part concerns the accurate computation of surface behaviour. Arithmetic operations on BBzier surfaces are u
