Isotopic approximations and interval solids
Given a nonsingular compact two-manifold F without boundary, we present methods for establishing a family of surfaces which can approximate F so that each approximant is ambient i...

Choosing consistent constraints for beautification of reverse engineered geometric models
Boundary representation models reconstructed from 3D range data suffer from various inaccuracies caused by noise in the data and the model building software. Such models can be im...
