Descrizione articolo

Riassunto:

A text providing a comprehensive treatment of the basic methods in curve and surface design at an advanced undergraduate/beginning graduate level. The emphasis is on the concepts of Bezier and B-spline methods for curves, rational Bezier and B-spline curves, geometric continuity, spline interpolation, and Coon methods. This edition (second was 1990) includes several new sections and numerical examples, a treatment of the new blossoming principle, and new C programs (all C programs are on the included disk).
