Minimum curvature variation curves, networks, and surfaces for fair free-form shape design
@inproceedings{Moreton1992MinimumCV, title={Minimum curvature variation curves, networks, and surfaces for fair free-form shape design}, author={Henry P. Moreton}, year={1992} }
Traditionally methods for the design of free-form curves and surfaces focus on achieving a specific level of inter-element continuity. These methods use a combination of heuristics and constructions to achieve an ultimate shape. Though shapes constructed using these methods are technically continuous, they have been shown to lack fairness, possessing undesirable blemishes such as bulges and wrinkles. Fairness is closely related to the smooth and minimal variation of curvature.
