This note conjectures that if two surface patches intersect with G1 continuity along an entire curve, the probability is one that the curve is rational. This idea has significance...
Caustics are important visual phenomena, as well as challenging global illumination effects in computer graphics. Physically caustics can be interpreted from one of two perspectiv...
Computing the intersection curve of two quadrics is a fundamental problem in computer graphics and solid modeling. We present an algebraic method for classifying and parameterizin...
The automatic generation of volumes bounding the intersection of two implicit surfaces (isosurfaces of real functions of 3D point coordinates) or Feature Based Volumes (FBV) is pr...
The differential geometry of smooth three-dimensional surfaces can be interpreted from one of two perspectives: in terms of oriented frames located on the surface, or in terms of ...
