The intended audience of this book (and the combined two volumes especially) is quite
broad. It can be used in a variety of computer graphics courses or by those who are trying to …

The problem of the path planning method is regarded as one of the key bottlenecks in the
robotic belt grinding system. It has a significant impact on the surface quality of processed …

Resource allocation in High Performance Computing (HPC) settings is still not easy for end-
users due to the wide variety of application and environment configuration options. Users …

We introduce a new method to interpolate scattered 3D data points with a single B-spline
surface patch which is globally smooth. Given a set of scattered 3D data points and their …

The design of horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) blades involves several geometric
complexities. As a result, the modeling of these blades by commercial computer-aided …

This paper proposes a new approach for lofted B-spline surface interpolation to serial
contours, where the number of points varies from contour to contour. The approach first finds …

This paper considers the problem of constructing a smooth surface to fit rows of data points.
A special class of T-spline surfaces is examined, which is characterized to have a global …

Surface reconstruction from sets of cross-sectional data is important in a variety of
applications. The problem of generating a ship hull surface from non-regular cross-sectional …

A new algorithm for reducing control points in lofted surface interpolation to rows of data
points is presented in this paper. The key step of surface lofting is to obtain a set of …

This paper addresses the problem of B-spline surface interpolation to serial contours, where
the number of points varies from contour to contour. A traditional approach to the problem …
