The implicit structure of ridges of a smooth parametric surface
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...

Principal curvature ridges and geometrically salient regions of parametric B-spline surfaces
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...

Robust Particle Systems for Curvature Dependent Sampling of Implicit Surfaces
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...
