Given a smooth surface, a blue (red) ridge is a curve such that at each of its points, the maximum (minimum) principal curvature has an extremum along its curvature line. Ridges a...
Ridges are characteristic curves of a surface that mark salient intrinsic features of its shape and are therefore valuable for shape matching, surface quality control, visualizati...

This paper gives an overview of some recent methods useful for local and global shape analysis and for the design of solids. These methods include as new tools for global and loca...
Recent research on point-based surface representations suggests that point sets may be a viable alternative to parametric surface representations in applications where the topolog...
