Almost rotation minimizing parametrization of the canal surface is given. The basic building block of our approach is the curve approximation scheme that enables us to construct a...

We present a new approach toward the rational parametrization of canal surfaces. According to our previous work, every canal surface with rational (respectively polynomial)spine c...

A canal surface S, generated by a parametrized curve m(t), in R3 is the envelope of the set of spheres with radius r(t) centered at m(t). This concept generalizes the classical of...

Laguerre geometry provides a simple approach to the design of rational curves and surfaces with rational offsets. These so-called PH curves and PN surfaces can be constructed from...

We identify a class of monomial supports that are inherently improper because any surface rational parametrization defined on them is improper. A surface support is inherently imp...
