Almost rotation-minimizing rational parametrization of canal surfaces
Almost rotation minimizing parametrization of the canal surface is given. The basic building block of our approach is the curve approximation scheme that enables us to construct a...

A finite element method for surface restoration with smooth boundary conditions
In surface restoration usually a damaged region of a surface has to be replaced by a surface patch which restores the region in a suitable way. In particular one aims for C1-conti...

A conjecture on tangent intersections of surface patches
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...

Shape characterization of subdivision surfaces--case studies
For subdivision surfaces, it is important to characterize local shape near flat spots and points where the surface is not twice continuously differentiable. Applying general princ...

Estimating differential quantities using polynomial fitting of osculating jets
This paper addresses the point-wise estimation of differential properties of a smooth manifold S--a curve in the plane or a surface in 3D--assuming a point cloud sampled over S is...
