Geometric continuity

From MaRDI portal





One of the main problems of computer aided design is the smooth fitting of surface patches. The authors define geometric (i.e., not parameter dependent) fitting of order k and characterize it in the case of analytic patches. \{An alternative approach would be to say that two patches meet with fit of order k if at the join both generate the same tangent space of order k, cf. \textit{W. F. Pohl}, Differential geometry of higher order, Topology 1, 169-211 (1962; Zbl 0112.366)].\}
