We describe an extension of B-splines to surfacesof arbitrary topology, including arbitrary boundaries. The technique inherits many of the properties of B-splines: local control, ...
Smoothly blended articulated models are often difficult to construct using current techniques. Our solution in this paper is to extend the surfaces introduced by Blinn [Blinn 1982...
Many visual representations for trees have been developed in information and software visualization. One of them are cone trees, a well-known three-dimensional representation for ...
This paper describes a technique for producing realistic animations of melting objects. The work presented here introduces a method that accurately models both thermal flow and t...
We describe a rendering system that converts a 3D meshed model into the stylized 2D filled-region vector-art commonly found in clip-art libraries. To properly define filled region...
