Continuous foldability of polygonal paper
We prove that any given well-behaved folded state of a piece of paper can be reached via a continuous folding process starting from the unfolded paper and ending with the folded st...

Locked and unlocked chains of planar shapes
We extend linkage unfolding results from the well-studied case of polygonal linkages to the more general case of linkages of polygons. More precisely, we consider chains of nonove...

A kinematic approach to Kokotsakis meshes
A Kokotsakis mesh is a polyhedral structure consisting of an n-sided central polygon P0 surrounded by a belt of polygons in the following way: Each side ai of P0 is shared by an a...

Hausdorff core of a one reflex vertex polygon
In this paper we present a polynomial time algorithm for computing a Hausdorff core of a polygon with a single reflex vertex. A Hausdorff core of a polygon P is a convex polygon Q...

A local fitting algorithm for converting planar curves to B-splines
In this paper we present a local fitting algorithm for converting smooth planar curves to Bsplines. For a smooth planar curve a set of points together with their tangent vectors a...
