Subdivision Surface Modeling Technology

This book offers a comprehensive introduction to Subdivision Surface Modeling Technology focusing not only on fundamental theories but also on practical applications. It furthers readers' understanding of the contacts between spline surfaces and subdivision surfaces, enabling them to master the Subdivision Surface Modeling Technology for analyzing subdivision surfaces. Subdivision surface modeling is a popular technology in the field of computer aided design (CAD) and computer graphics (CG) thanks to its ability to model meshes of any topology. The book also discusses some typical Subdivision Surface Modeling Technologies, such as interpolation, fitting, fairing, intersection, as well as trimming and interactive editing. It is a valuable tool, enabling readers to grasp the main technologies of subdivision surface modeling and use them in software development, which in turn leads to a better understanding of CAD/CG software operations.

Zusatztext

“Surface modeling is a fundamental tool of CAGD. It's derived from the aeronautics industry because shapes of airplanes are complex and it is very difficult to express these shapes by using analytical surfaces. ... this book represents an important tool for graduate students, teachers and technical staff using CAGD, CAD and other related fields .” (Antonio López-Carmona, Mathematical Reviews, April 2018)
