A well-documented problem of Catmull and Clark subdivision is that, in the neighborhood of extraordinary point, the curvature is unbounded and fluctuates. In fact, since one of th...
The joint spectral radius of a set of matrices is a measure of the maximal asymptotic growth rate that can be obtained by forming long products of matrices taken from the set. This...
We introduce (1/r)-cuttings for collections of surfaces in 3-space that are sensitive to an additional collection of curves. Specifically, let S be a set of n surfaces in R3 of c...
Three fundamental problems in the study of grasping and dextrous manipulation with multifingered robotic hands are as follows. a) Given a robotic hand and a grasp characterized by ...
