Fat conic section and fat conic spline are defined. With well established properties of fat conic splines, the problem of approximating a ruled surface by a tangent smooth cone sp...
Developable surfaces are modelled with pieces of right circular cones. These cone spline surfaces are well-suited for applications: They possess degree two parametric and implicit...
A number of useful bivariate spline methods are global in nature, i.e., all of the coefficients of an approximating spline must be computed at one time. Typically this involves sol...
To support real-time computation with large, possibly evolving point clouds and range data, we fit a trimmed uniform tensor-product spline function from one direction. The graph ...
This paper compares two techniques for the approximation of the offsets to a given planar curve. The two methods are based on approximate conversion of the planar curve into circu...
