Geometric Modeling with Splines: An Introduction
Geometric Modeling with Splines An Introduction Author:Elaine Cohen, Richard F. Riesenfeld, Gershon Elber Written by researchers who have helped to found and shape the field, this book is a definitive introduction to geometric modeling. The authors present a broad base of fundamentally important techniques for curve and surface representations in computer-aided modeling with a focus on how the techniques can be used in design. In achieving a balan... more »ce between mathematical rigor and broad applicability, they show how theoretical properties can be harnessed to drive practical algorithms, how a somewhat more abstract treatment can occasionally provide unifying elegance and implementational advantage.« less
