Functional optimization for fair surface design
@article{Moreton1992FunctionalOF, title={Functional optimization for fair surface design}, author={Henry P. Moreton and C. S{\'e}quin}, journal={Proceedings of the 19th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques}, year={1992} }
This paper presents a simple-to-use mechanism for the creation of complex smoothly shaped surfaces of any genus or topology. The work described here is the result of research into the fairness of curves and surfaces specified through geometric interpolarity constraints. Constraints consist of positions and, optionally, surface normals and surface curvatures. The outcome of our investigation is a recommendation for the use of nonlinear optimization techniques that minimize a fairness functional… CONTINUE READING
