Skin: A Constructive Approach to Modeling Free-Form Shapes
We present a new particle-based surface representation with which a user can interactively sculpt free-form surfaces. The particles maintain mesh connectivity and operate under ru...

Subdivision Schemes for Thin Plate Splines
Thin plate splines are a well known entity of geometric design. They are defined as the minimizer of a variational problem whose differential operators approximate a simple notio...

Merging and smoothing machining boundaries on cutter location surfaces
In region machining, neighbouring regions may be close together, but disconnected. Boundary curves may also have unwanted geometric artifacts caused by approximation and discretis...

Surface interpolation of meshes by geometric subdivision
Subdivision surfaces are generated by repeated approximation or interpolation from initial control meshes. In this paper, two new nonlinear subdivision schemes, face based subdivi...

Paneling architectural freeform surfaces
The emergence of large-scale freeform shapes in architecture poses big challenges to the fabrication of such structures. A key problem is the approximation of the design surface b...
