Description
This book provides a comprehensive coverage of the fields Geometric Modeling, Computer-Aided Design, and Scientific Visualization, or
Computer-Aided Geometric Design. Leading international experts have contributed, thus creating a one-of-a-kind collection of authoritative
articles. There are chapters outlining basic theory in tutorial style, as well as application-oriented articles. Aspects which are covered
include:
Historical outline
Curve and surface methods
Scientific Visualization
Implicit methods
Reverse engineering.
This book is meant to be a reference text for researchers in the field as well as an introduction to graduate students wishing to get
some exposure
to this subject.
Audience
Libraries. Graduate students wishing to get some exposure
to this subject.
